Most common route for m bovis tb
|
Inhalationinhalation of M. bovis and phagocytosis by alveolar macrophages is most common. If the mycobacterium is not killed by the macrophage then it will multiply intracellularly and spread within the lungs via the airways and to the tracheobronchial lymph nodes via the lymphatics. Further dissemination may occur to other organs.
Early changes are small granulomas often in the dorsocaudal and subpleural lung regions. Over time, these granulomas enlarge and coalesce to produce large areas of caseous necrosis surrounded by giant cells, macrophages, lymphocytes, plasma cells and fibrosis. |
