[Findings in goats at necropsy].
An overview is given of the results of diagnostic investigations into the cause of death of 463 goats performed by the Animal Health Service of West and Middle Netherlands during the period 1 January 1986 to 31 December 1991. The results are discussed and analysed with regard to the age of the animals, the anamnesis, and the abnormalities found at post-mortem examination and with regard to the results of further parasitological, bacteriological, and virological investigations. Enterotoxaemia caused by (epsilon-toxin-positive) Clostridium perfringens was present in 9% of the animals and fibrinous pneumonia with pasteurella in 15% of the animals. Animals with Aujeszky's disease did not show the 'itching' symptom. There were few parasitic infections.
