Sažetak

This paper describes clinical and pathomorphological aspects in two spontaneous cases of bovine actinomycosis. Efficacy of Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy (FNAB) and incisional biopsy results are compared. FNAB seems to be a simple and rapid method for presumptive diagnosis of the disease. However, incisional biopsy has an added advantage over the former as it provides information regarding the nature of the pathohistological changes, but diagnose is recently made. Diagnosis was established on the basis of involvement of the mandible with indurated swelling, microscopic finding of sulphur granules and demonstration of Gram-positive interwoven filamentous organisms, along with coccoid forms in the aspirate and in the core of the granulomas. All attempts to culture the organism were unsuccessful. However, Staphylococcus aureus proved to be a concomitant aerobic microbe. Presence of eosinophils in the lesions and their increased numbers in the blood was an additional finding in the present study.
