Bacterial examination of the synovial effusion of 26 donkey joints (15 carpal, 10 fetlock and one pastern) revealed isolation of staph. sp as a prodominant microorganism in septic arthritis. Staph aureus represented (14.28%) and Staph. ep < /em>idermedis was (61.9%). Corynebacterium equi, Corynebacterium pyogenes, Enterobacter aerogenes and Shigella sp. were also isolated. The antibiogram of the isolated microorganisms revealed that bactrim is the antibiotic of choice followed by rifampicin, flumequine and chloramphenicol. All strains showed resistance to polymyxin.
