Husbandry staff noticed a research-naïve, young-adult, female finch tossing its head back intermittently. A second finch exhibiting similar signs was reported a few days later. Postmortem necropsy and histopathology with hematoxylin and eosin and acid-fast staining on the first finch revealed the presence of acid-fast organisms in several organs. After presumptive diagnosis of mycobacteriosis, all remaining finches housed in the same room as the first underwent necropsy and histology. Three additional finches were positive for Mycobacterium-like acid-fast organisms. Incidental findings of megabacteriosis were noted histopathologically on 2 other finches.
饲养人员注意到一只从未参与过研究的成年雌性雀科鸣鸟间歇性地仰头。几天后，又有一只表现出类似症状的雀科鸣鸟被报告。对第一只雀科鸣鸟进行的尸检及苏木精-伊红染色和抗酸染色的组织病理学检查显示，多个器官中存在抗酸菌。在初步诊断为分枝杆菌病后，与第一只雀科鸣鸟饲养在同一房间的所有其余雀科鸣鸟都接受了尸检和组织学检查。另外三只雀科鸣鸟对类结核分枝杆菌抗酸菌呈阳性。在另外两只雀科鸣鸟的组织病理学检查中偶然发现了巨杆菌病。
