  • Title: Mastitis concomitant with traumatic reticulo-peritonitis in buffaloes.
    Author: Morcos MB, Lotfi ZS, Sabban MA, Ibrahim MS, Nada SM.
    Journal: Ann Rech Vet; 1977; 8(3):221-5. PubMed ID: 564656.
    Abstract:
    Out of 500 dairy buffaloes examined for traumatic reticulitis in two farms, 51 buffaloes (10.2 %) were diagnosed as having the syndrome in its subacute and chronic forms. Of this 51 diseased animals, 39 had idiopathic mastitis (76.5 %). This high percentage of mastitis cases associated with traumatic reticulitis is considered as being four times the incidence of primary mastitis (20 %) in cattle. It is most likely that secondary mastitis is due to the contiguous spread of bacteria from the infected focus favoured by the devitalising effect of the foreign body syndrome.
