geese - Goose parvovirus infection/Derzy’s disease
Inclusion body hepatitis etiologic agent
Avian adenovirus
Disease o young chickens
-hemorrhages
-pale bone marrow
- anemia
- depression
Inclusion body hepatitis
Sudden onset of mortality peaking in 3-4 days and continuing for 2-3 weeks
Inclusion body hepatitis
Inclusion body hepatitis incubation period
24-48 hours
Low morbidity,
MT reaches 25% over a 2 week period (course of disease)
Inclusion body hepatitis
Normally seen in meat producing birds at 3-7 weeks
Inclusion body hepatitis
Could occur in younger and older birds (breeder flock)
Inclusion body hepatitis
Inclusion body hepatitis transmission
Horizontal and vertical transmision
-Pale carcass, punctuate hemorrhages on breast muscles
-Swollen liver w/ subcapsular speckled hemorrhages and necrotic foci (punctuate not stellate)
-Anemia due to degeneration of bone marrow (pale on necropsy)
Inclusion body hepatitis
Inclusion body hepatitis diagnosis:
-Clinical signs and lesions
-Pathognomonic: demonstration of basophilic inclusion bodies of hepatocytes
-Isolated by inoculation in SPF (specified pathogen free) embryos or eggs with liver homogenates
Cowdry type A inclusion bodies in nucleus
Inclusion body hepatitis diagnosis: Pathognomonic
Inclusion body hepatitis tx and prevention
-Antibiotics to prevent bacterial infection
-Obtain stocks from IBD-vaccinated flocks
-Contaminated poultry house should be disinfected with compounds
-Vaccination
Tx: little value because self limiting (2weeks)
Inclusion body hepatitis
Inclusion body hepatitis:
Contaminated poultry houses should be disinfected with _________________
with iodine-containing compounds for NaOCl (sodium hypochloride)
