As the buffaloe oedematous skin disease (OSD) became an endemic disease in Egypt, the present investigation objected to approach the subject in a localized district as a field study. Through a village clinic, 44 buffaloe cows suffering from OSD were included in the study. The disease was observed in two clinical forms, oedematous (95.5 %) and nodular (4.5 %), where ulcerative form was not recorded. Anterior parts of the body were mostly affected (79.5 %). Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis was the causative agent of the disease. It was isolated from aspirated exudates as single infection from 32 (80.0%) and as mixed infection with Staphylococcus epidermidis from 3 (7.5 %).
