Abstract

Bronchopneumonia (BP) and acute interstitial pneumonia (AIP) are commonly identified lung pathologies in feedlot cattle at treatment or death. Bronchopneumonia with an interstitial pneumonia (BIP) was recently described as an emerging lung pathology. Due to recent introduction of BIP diagnosis, little is known about epidemiological factors associated with this pa­thology and if it differs from AIP and BP. This study aimed to identify epidemiological factors associated with BIP, AIP and BP at necropsy.
