Identification of postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome in European wild boar (Sus scrofa)
Veterinary Record, 2004, Volume 154, Nº22, 694-696
A 10-month-old wild boar was found dead in a rural area in Germany. Post-mortem examination revealed wasting and gross lesions indicative of bacterial septicemia that was further confirmed by the identification of Salmonella cholerasuis. In addition, histological lesions together with a wide range of serological and molecular tests demonstrated the presence of PCV2 infection. The sequencing of the resulting isolate showed a very high homology with other PCV2 isolates obtained from German domestic pigs. It is interesting to notice that this animal was much older than PMWS-affected domestic pigs suggesting that, following PCV2-infection, others factor such as concurrent infections be necessary for the development of the disease. In that case systemic salmonellosis could have been the triggering factor. This paper is the first report of PMWS in a free-living European wild boar.
