Impetigo

Features

Impetigo (Latin: an attack; scabby eruption) is a superficial pustular dermatitis that does not involve hair follicles. It is uncommon, cosmopolitan, and caused by Staphylococcus aureus, and predisposing factors include trauma, moisture, and the stress of parturition. Dairy breeds and lactating females are predisposed.

Lesions are most commonly seen on the udder (especially the base of the teats and the intramammary sulcus) and teats, with the ventral abdomen, medial thighs, vulva, perineum, and ventral tail less commonly affected (Figs. 1.1‐1 and 1.1‐2). Superficial vesicles rapidly become pustular, rupture, and leave annular erosions, epidermal collarettes, and yellow‐brown crusts (Fig. 1.1‐3). Lesions are neither pruritic nor painful, and affected animals are otherwise healthy. Up to 48% of a herd may be affected. Staphylococcal mastitis is a possible but uncommon complication. Occasionally, lesions can become nodular and painful (furunculosis) and spread to adjacent haired areas.
