Clinical signs of ulcerative lymphangitis can be mainly seen in suckling horses
F
- all age group
Purulent inflammation of the lymphatic vessels is typical in the case of ulcerative lymphangitis
T
The agent of ulcerative lymphangitis can be detected by microscopic examination
T
Equine ulcerative lymphadenitis is an acute disease with high fever
F
it is CHRONIC , fever is a clinical sign
Equine ulcerative lymphadenitis occurs only in tropical countries.
