Abstract

A male Long-legged buzzard with a gunshot wound on his left wing was presented for treatment. However, the bird died shortly after, and then the routine necropsy was performed. At necropsy, numerous white-to-yellow nodular lesions sizing several mm to 1 cm in diameter were noted in liver, spleen, gizzard and lung. Microscopic examination of the nodules in lung and gizzard revealed classical formation of tubercles characterized by a caseous core surrounded by epitheloid cells, multinucleated giant cells, heterophils, macrophages, and outer fibrous capsule. Fibrous capsule formation was vague in tubercles located in liver and spleen. Acid fast bacteria were shown by Ziehl-Neelsen staining. Based on the observations a diagnosis of avian mycobacteriosis was made. This report indicates that avian tuberculosis might be an important disease in free living animals in Turkey as in other places, and more attention might be needed to monitor the disease.

Özet

Sol kanadında ateşli silah yarası bulunan bir erkek Uzun bacaklı şahin tedavi amaçlı getirilmiş, ancak kısa sürede ölmüş ve rutin nekropsisi yapılmıştır. Nekropside; karaciğer, dalak, ventrikulus ve akciğerlerde çok sayıda, yarıçapı birkaç mm ile 1 cm arasında değişen büyüklüklerde beyaz-sarı renkli nodüler lezyonlar dikkati çekti. Mikroskobik bakıda akciğer ve ventrikulusta kazeifiye merkez etrafında epiteloid hücreler, çok çekirdekli dev hücreleri, heterofil lökositler, makrofajlar ve en dışta fibröz bir kapsül ile karakterize klasik tüberkel yapısı gözlemlendi. Fibröz kapsül yapısı karaciğer ve dalaktaki tüberkellerde belirgin değildi. Ziehl-Neelsen boyama ile aside dirençli bakterilerin varlığı belirlendi. Yapılan gözlemler sonucunda kanatlı tüberkülozu tanısı konuldu. Bu olgu sunumu; diğer pek çok yerde olduğu gibi ülkemizde de kanatlı tüberkülozunun doğada serbest yaşayan hayvanların önemli bir sorunu olabileceğini göstermiş ve bu alanda daha fazla ilgiye ihtiyaç duyulduğunu ortaya koymuştur.
