Listeria monocytogenes was found to be the cause of fatal suppurative meningoencephalomyelitis in a 3.5-month-old cria. The cria initially had clinical signs of unilateral peripheral vestibular disease, but on the following day, the cria developed progressive signs of encephalitis. Treatment with antibiotics, flunixin meglumine, and anticonvulsant drugs failed to stop progression of the disease, and the cria was euthanatized. Post-mortem examination revealed otitis media-interna and diffuse suppurative meningoencephalomyelitis. Listeria monocytogenes was isolated from CSF and brain tissue.
在一只3.5个月大的小羊驼身上，单核细胞增生李斯特菌被发现是致命性化脓性脑膜脑脊髓炎的病因。这只小羊驼最初有单侧外周前庭疾病的临床症状，但在第二天，它出现了进行性脑炎症状。使用抗生素、氟尼辛葡甲胺和抗惊厥药物治疗未能阻止疾病进展，小羊驼最终被实施安乐死。尸检发现中耳内耳炎和弥漫性化脓性脑膜脑脊髓炎。从脑脊液和脑组织中分离出了单核细胞增生李斯特菌。
