Bacterial myositis occurs when bacteria gain entry via direct penetration, blood stream or extension from other areas. Lesions caused tend to be suppurative, serosanguinous or granulomatous.
Abscesses:
:They are caused by pyogenic bacteria, usually: [[Arcanobacter pyogenes|''Arcanobacterium pyogenes'']] in sheep and cattle, [[Strangles|''Streptococcus equi'']] in horses, ''[[Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis]]'' in sheep and goats. [[Pasteurella multocida|''Pasteurella multocida'']] causes cellulitis in cats.
:Abscesses usually present with localised suppuration and necrosis of myofibres, they may occasionally spread via the fascia.
