|q1=What are the two types of Bovine Leukaemia, which is most common and which carries the poorer prognosis?
|a1=
*Bovine lymphosarcoma
* Persistent lymphocytosis
*2/3 BLV cases are lymphosarcoma
*Lymphosarcoma is malignant and more commonly fatal
|l1=Bovine Leukaemia Virus#Introduction
|q2=How can vets spread BLV infection?
|a2=By transferring contaminated blood between animals during surgeries, vaccinations and husbandry procedures such as dehorning.
|l2= Bovine Leukaemia Virus#Transmission
|q3=What is the most common sign of early bovine lymphosarcoma?
|a3= Lymph node enlargement
|l3= Bovine Leukaemia Virus#Lymphosarcoma
|q4=What sequelae are thought to cause the sudden deaths seen in bovine lymphosarcoma?
|a4=
* Abomasal ulcer rupture
* Adrenal gland involvement
|l4= Bovine Leukaemia Virus#Lymphosarcoma
|q5=What is the clinical definition of Persistent lymphocytosis?
|a5= An increase in total lymphocyte count by three times the normal standard deviation, for at least three months.
|l5= Bovine Leukaemia Virus#Persistent Lymphocytosis
|q6= What is the official standard test approved by most governments for screening of BLV?
|a6= Agar Gel Immunodiffusion (AGID)
|l6= Bovine Leukaemia Virus#Diagnosis
|q7= What is found at post-mortem in cattle with BLV?
|a7= Multiple firm white tumours, in any organ, but most commonly the kidneys, thymus, liver, spleen and lymph nodes.
