ESCHERICHIA COLI INFECTIONS

Omphalitis (navel infection). It is characterized with reddening and tissue oedema in the umbilical region.

2. Escherichia coli infections are widely distributed among poultry of all ages and categories. They are primarily related to poor hygienic conditions, neglected technological requirements or to respi-ratory and immunosuppressive diseases. A common sequel of navel infections is local or diffuse peritonitis.2. Escherichia coli infections are widely distributed among poultry of all ages and categories.

A common sequel of navel infections is local or diffuse peritonitis.

When the amount of egg white is bigger (in larger eggs), it impedes the absorption during hatching, resulting in subcutaneous jelly-like oedemas that are an excellent media for the development of E. coli infections.3. When the amount of egg white is bigger (in larger eggs), it impedes the absorption during hatching, resulting in subcutaneous jelly-like oedemas that are an excellent media for the development of E. coli infections.

The delayed absorption of the yolk sac is a prerequisite for E. coli infections and peritonitis. The most commonly identified E. coli serotypes are: 01:K1 (L); 02:K1 (L) and 078:K80 (B).4. The delayed absorption of the yolk sac is a prerequisite for E. coli infections and peritonitis. The most commonly identified E. coli serotypes are: 01:K1 (L); 02:K1 (L) and 078:K80 (B).

At a later stage of the infection, the yolk content is a cause of putrefactive necrotic processes in the peritoneal cavity. The abdomen is bloated. The entire abdominal wall is affected by a moist gangrene (maceration).5. At a later stage of the infection, the yolk content is a cause of putrefactive necrotic processes in the peritoneal cavity. The abdomen is bloated. The entire abdominal wall is affected by a moist gangrene (maceration).

Salpingitis (inflammation of the oviduct). Salpingites due to E. coli infections could be also observed in growing birds. The oviduct is dilated, with thinned wall and filled with caseous exudate all along its length.6. Salpingitis (inflammation of the oviduct). Salpingites due to E. coli infections could be also observed in growing birds. The oviduct is dilated, with thinned wall and filled with caseous exudate all along its length.

Salpingites are among the commonest causes for death in layer hens. E. coli penetrates from the cloaca via an ascendant route. Predisposing factors are the intense egg laying and the associated estrogen activity.7. Salpingites are among the commonest causes for death in layer hens.

. Salpingitis.
In older cases, the caseous masses in the oviduct have a lamellar structure. E. coli organisms are usually found in excreta because of their presence in avian and mammalian intestine, the birds are constantly at risk of infection through contaminated water, dust, faeces and environment

9. Salpingitis. Retained yolks among the caseous masses in the oviduct. In some cases, when the systemic resistance is lower, places, contaminated with E. coli, such as intestine, genital tract or nasal passages, could be latent sources of infection.

In these instances, the infection could turn into an overt infection under the influence of some stress factors or lesions.12. Egg yolk peritonitis in a layer hen consequently to E. coli salpingitis.

In some cases with adult birds, in the region of the head, subcutaneous masses of thick serofibrinous exudate resulting from a local E. coli infection could be detected.

Enterocolitis.
Enterotoxigenic E. coli that produce toxins, cause the secretion and retention of fluids in some intestinal loops and especially in the caeca. Clinically, diarrhoea and de-hydration are observed. The intestines are pale and distended, particularly the caeca that are overfilled with fluid containing many gas bubbles

. Neonatal E. coli septicaemia.
Chickens in the first 24 - 48 h after hatching are affected. The death rate during the first ten days is higher and could reach 5 - 6%. The yolk sac is unabsorbed. The spleen is enlarged. Some days later, the typical serofibrinous polyserositis lesions, affecting the peritoneum, the pericardium, the air sacs and the liver capsule are manifested.

Acute E. coli septicaemia in layer hens.
Clinically and morphologically, the acute E. coli septicaemia could resemble fowl cholera or fowl typhoid. It is encountered in both young and sexually mature birds. The stress in the beginning of egg-laying is considered as an important predisposing factor. The parenchymal organs are enlarged and hyperaemic. Sometimes, the liver has a greenish colour and is mottled with multiple small necrotic foci. Also, pericarditis, peritonitis and petechial haemorrhages on serous coats are present.

In such cases, the respiratory mucosa damaged by infectious and non-infections agents (ND viruses including vaccinal strains, IB, TRT, mycoplasmae, high ammonia levels) is the entrance door of the E. coli infection. The lesions are principally observed in the respiratory tract (trachea, lungs and air sacs), but some adjacent serous coats (pericardium, peritoneum) are also affected and thus, the picture of a typical serofibrinous polyserositis is produced.

. Arthritis, Osteomyelitis and Osteonecrosis (inflammation of joints, bone marrow and bone necrosis, respectively). The lesions are a common sequel to E. coli septicaemia. Clinically, lameness, prolonged lying down, dehydration and retarded growth rate are observed. The coxofemoral joints, the femur and tibiotarsal joints are most commonly affected. The bacteria colonize the physes of growing bones and provoke an inflammatory response that is further causing osteomyelitis. Pathoanatomically, fractures of the femoral head are usually discovered.29.. Arthritis, Osteomyelitis and Osteonecrosis (inflammation of joints, bone marrow and bone necrosis, respectively).

. Bursitis sternalis (inflammation of the sternal bursa). The bursa is enlarged in a various extent and filled with inflammatory exudate. The diagnosis of coli - infections is based on isolation and typization of pathogenic E. coli serotypes. Many other bacteria (salmonellae, pasteurellae, staphylococci etc.), viruses, chlamydiae and mycoplasmae should be excluded as possible aetiological agents. The prevention should aim at minimizing the probability of faecal contamination of eggs. This implies the maintenance of clean nests, discarding floor eggs and removal of eggs that are cracked or contaminated with faeces. Breeder eggs should be fumigated or disinfected in the farm prior to their transportation in the storage premise. The treatment is effective if initiated soon after testing the antibacterial sensitivity of isolates. Bursitis sternalis (inflammation of the sternal bursa).
