[et al.] (2015) - First report of granulomatous lymphadenitis caused by Nocardia spp. in hunted wild boar (Sus scrofa) in Portugal. Veterinary Record 177: 103-104.2042-7670http://hdl.handle.net/10400.11/3376In humans, Nocardia species have the potential to cause localised or disseminated infection (Cooper and others 2014). This genus has previously been detected in wild ungulates (Vemireddi and others 2007, Domenis and others 2009) but not in wild boar (Sus scrofa). Although hundreds of ungulates are hunted in the Iberian Peninsula annually, no case of nocardiosis from wild boar has been reported.engGranulomatous lymphadenitisSus scrofaNocardia spp.Granulomatous lymphadenitis caused by Nocardia species in hunted wild boar (Sus scrofa) in Portugaljournal article10.1136/vr.h3988
