This report describes a rare and atypical infection by Rhodococcus equi in a mixed-breed dog, associated with a pyogranulomatous pleuropneumonia and mediastinitis with abundant intralesional Gram-positive coccobacilli. The bacterium was isolated and identified as Rhodococcus hoagii (R. equi) using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization–time of flight (MALDI-ToF), followed by whole-genomic sequencing that detected the vapN virulence-associated gene and identified a new sequence type (ST), designated as ST111.</p> 2026-09-22T15:37:42Z Dataset Dataset 10.3389/fvets.2026.1912379.s001 https://figshare.com/articles/dataset/Table_1_Pleuropneumonia_and_mediastinitis_caused_by_Rhodococcus_equi_in_a_dog_a_case_report_xlsx/33966064 CC BY 4.0
