An attempt to develop gangrenous dermatomyositis in broiler chicks was carried out. The authors used an overnight cooked meat broth culture of Cl. welchii type A either alone or in addition to a 5% solution of calcium chloride. Different routes of inoculation were applied and the chicks were observed to record the clinical signs. Post-morteum examination was con ducted on dead birds and attempts for isolation of the microorganism were done. Histopathologically the lesions were mainly gangrenous dermatomyositis haemo rrhagica and was localised in the skin and in the inoculated muscles. The lesions were fully described and discussed.
