The results obtained are summarized as follows. 1. Of 867 animals slaughtered over a period from December, 1970 to August, 1971, 46 animals (5%) had hepatic abscesses of varying sizes. 2. 0f 66 hepatic abscesses found, 57 (86%) contained Fusobacterium necrophorum. In 21 of these specimens, the organism was isolated in pure culture. In the majority of the rest, it was detected predominantly. From 7 specimens, Staphylococcus, Corynebacterium, Peptostreptococcus, Micrococcus, fungi, Enterobacteriaceae and Gram-negative rods were isolated. No organisms were found in 2 specimens. 3. The viable count of F. necrophorum in an abscess ranged from 10^4 to 10^9 per gram of hepatic tissue.
