  • Title: Leptospira abortion in horses.
    Author: Hodgin EC, Miller DA, Lozano F.
    Journal: J Vet Diagn Invest; 1989 Oct; 1(4):283-7. PubMed ID: 2488711.
    Abstract:
    Leptospira infection was diagnosed as the cause of 4 late-term equine abortions/stillbirths and 1 neonatal death in Louisiana. The most consistent gross and microscopic lesions were icterus and interstitial nephritis, respectively. Diagnoses were based on visualization of compatible spirochetes in Warthin-Starry-stained sections of kidney, liver, and placenta. Confirmation by immunofluorescence was made in 2 cases.
