Abstract:

[Article in Dutch]Two cases of bovine mycotic placentitis are reported. The two cows did not show any clinical symptoms before or during premature delivery of two clinically normal calves. In both placentas a severe placentitis accompanied by extensive necrosis and a large number of hyphae was present in two placentas. Aspergillus fumigatus was isolated in one case. The literature on bovine mycotic placentitis is reviewed in the discussion.
