Clostridial myositis associated with injections of sodium sulphathiazole.

Non-traumatic clostridial myositis: an unusual feature of brain death.

In a case of brain death, a Clostridium sordellii and Escherichia coli septicaemia--of probable gastrointestinal origin--developed and was associated with a diffuse clostridial myositis. Factors responsible for the initiation and development of this unusual clostridial infection are discussed.

An unusual necrotic myositis by Clostridium perfringens in a German Shepherd dog: A clinical report, bacteriological and molecular identification

Clostridial myositis, considered to be rare in pet animals, is an acutely fatal toxaemic condition. Some species of clostridia are responsible for necrotic myositis. A 2-year-old male German shepherd dog was admitted with non-weight bearing lameness and massive swelling of the left hind limb. Clostridium perfringens type A with alpha toxin was diagnosed as a pathogenic agent. Based on ...

Clostridial Myositis: Evaluation of Normal Equine Skeletal Muscles for the Presence of Clostridial Spores

Dormant clostridial spores are present in healthy skeletal muscle. Inflammatory events caused by a local and/or systemic insult may lead to development of an anaerobic environment suitable for germination of dormant spores in skeletal muscle and consequent clostridial myositis or clostridial myonecrosis.
