Avian Infective Endocarditis Associated with Vagococcus fluvialis: A Case Report and Literature Review
as a potential etiological agent of avian infective endocarditis and underscores the diagnostic challenges associated with avian endocarditis, particularly when uncommon pathogens are involved, and underscore the importance of advanced identification methods for an accurate etiological determination. Collectively, the results of this study expand the spectrum of bacterial species associated with avian infective endocarditis and emphasize the relevance of antimicrobial resistance and improved diagnostic strategies in poultry health and disease surveillance.
