CASE REPORT: A domestic pigeon developed a sterile granuloma following vaccination with an oil‐adjuvant, inactivated La Sota strain of Newcastle disease. The aim of vaccination was to provide protection against pigeon paramyxovirus‐1 (PPMV‐1), a disease previously considered exotic to Australia. Granuloma formation is considered a rare complication of vaccination against PPMV‐1 in pigeons. Clinical signs consistent with neuropathic pain became apparent during the extensive management of the granuloma, which included surgical removal of foreign material, control of the pain and inflammation and protection against antimicrobial contamination. CONCLUSION: PPMV‐1 is now considered endemic in Australia and protecting pigeons with vaccination is important. Until a product is registered for use, vaccination remains off‐label and the risk of adverse reaction, including sterile granuloma, must be considered.
