Abstract
A 6-year-old Holstein cow was referred for necropsy due to sudden death. The necropsy indicated hydroperitoneum, hydropericardium, and petechial hemorrhage on serosal surfaces associated with pulmonary edema and multiple abscesses in the liver. Histopathological examination revealed extensive hepatocellular necrosis with neutrophilic infiltrates and abscess formation. Cultures of the liver lesions and blood revealed a Gram-negative anaerobic bacteria confirmed as Bacteroides melaninogenicus.
