title: A canine case of profound granulomatosis due to Paecillomyces fungus.
abstract: A 5-year-old dog showed remarkable edematous swelling of the left hock with lameness and local cellulitis, and paecillomyces fungus was isolated from ulcerative lesion of the hock joint and mediastinum. At autopsy severe effusive pleuritis was shown and numerous necrotizing and granulomatous lesions with fungal elements were seen in the liver, pancreas, kidney and mediastinal lymph nodes.
