SUMMARY. Brachyspira pilosicoli is a slow-growing anaerobic spirochete that colonizes the large intestine. Colonization occurs commonly in pigs and adult chickens, causing colitis/typhlitis, diarrhea, poor growth rates, and reduced production. Colonization of humans also is common in some populations (individuals living in village and peri-urban Brachyspira pilosicoli, which colonizes many animal species, is common (~30%) in the feces of people from developing countries, including Australian Aborigines, and in HIV+ patients and male homosexuals in Western societies. It is also commonly seen attached to the rectal mucosa of homosexual males. The pathogenic potential of Brachyspira for humans is controversial.

Background Brachyspira pilosicoli is an anaerobic spirochaete that can colonizes the large intestine of many host species. Infection is particularly problematic in pigs and adult poultry, causing colitis and diarrhea, but it is also known to result in clinical problems in human beings. Despite the economic importance of the spirochaete as an animal pathogen, and its potential as a zoonotic Brachyspira pilosicoli specifically has been associated with colitis, diarrhea, and poor growth rates in pigs and adult chickens. Despite the high prevalence of Brachyspira pilosicoli colonization in certain human populations, there is a lack of uncertainty regarding the role of Brachyspira pilosicoli as a human pathogen. Identification of the 2013-07-01 Brachyspira species have been implicated as a potential cause of gastroenteritis in humans; this is, however, controversial. In 733 gastroenteritis cases and 464 controls, we found 29 samples positive for Brachyspira species (2.3% of cases and 2.6% of controls; P = 0.77).

2 Brachyspira infections in mammals and humans Brachyspira species or Brachyspira -like spirochetes, colonizing the intestinal tract, have been reported in several mammal species, e.g. in representatives of ruminants, horses, pigs, carnivores, rodents, marsupials, nonhuman primate species and humans. Identification or culturing of the

It is also commonly seen attached to the rectal mucosa of homosexual males. Brachyspira pilosicoli is a colonizing spirochete in the large intestine of pigs, and is occasionally found in humans. It can produce diarrhea and rectal bleeding [34] . Brachyspira aalborgi accounts for a small fraction (less than 1%) of cases of acute appendicitis.

Brachyspira species have been implicated as a potential cause of gastroenteritis in humans; this is, however, controversial. In 733 gastroenteritis cases and 464 controls, we found 29 samples positive for Brachyspira species (2.3% of cases and 2.6% of controls; P = 0.77). Brachyspira species were not associated with gastroenteritis in humans.

It causes dysentery in animals such as dogs or pigs and has been identified as a cause of human disease, e.g., abdominal cramping, diarrhea, and rectal bleeding. Brachyspira pilosicoli is the etiologic agent of human and animal intestinal spirochetosis and is rarely implicated as a cause of bacteremia. Here, we describe the case of a B. pilosicoli spirochetemia in a 53-year-old male patient suffering from cardiogenic shock. Brachyspira pilosicoli infects a wide range of mammals, including humans [5], [6], and is the undisputed etiological agent of porcine intestinal spirochaetosis [3], [7], and a well known pathogen causing diarrhoea and dysentery in pigs and chickens.

Brachyspira species were not associated with gastroenteritis in humans.

Its diagnosis is established by histology, culture, and polymerase chain reaction, but the value of cytologic examination in routine practice remains unclear. Brachyspira pilosicoli, which colonizes many animal species, is common (~30%) in the feces of people from developing countries, including Australian Aborigines, and in HIV+ patients and male homosexuals in Western societies.
