==In general==
 
 
 
*Some viruses are thought to induce modifications of the pulmonary defences by:
 
**Damaging the upper respiratory tract, thereby facilitating bacterial attachment and colonisation, with reduced [[Respiratory System General Introduction - Pathology#Mucociliary escalator|mucociliary clearance]]
 
**Decreasing surfactant levels by destroying Type 2 pneu[[Monocytes|monocytes]]
 
**Impairing the phagocytic ability of alveolar macrophages

==In Sheep==
 
 
 
===[[Maedi - Visna]]===
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
===Parainfluenza -3===
 
 
 
*As in [[Respiratory Viral Infections - Pathology#Parainfluenza- 3|cattle]]
 
 
 
 
 
===[[Sheep Pulmonary Adenomatosis]]===
 
 
 
*See [[Lungs Hyperplastic and Neoplastic - Pathology#Sheep pulmonary adenomatosis (SPA/ Jaagsiekte)|neoplasia]]
 
 
 
==In Goats==
 
 
 
===Caprine Arthritis-Encephalitis (CAE)===
 
 
 
*Caused by [[Retroviridae|retrovirus (lentivirus)]] similar to [[Respiratory Viral Infections - Pathology#Maedi Visna|Maedi Visna]] in sheep described above
 
*Two forms:
 
**Non-suppurative leukoencephalomyelitis in young goats and kids
 
**Chronic, non-suppurative arthritis-synovitis in adult goats
 
*Also causes [[Lungs Inflammatory - Pathology#Interstitial pneumonia|interstitial pneumonia]] which tends to be obscured by other clinical signs
 
*Gross pathology:
 
**Mainly caudal lobes
 
**Lungs are firm, grey-pink with grey-white focal lesions on cut surface
 
*Micro pathology:
 
**Thickened alveolar wall
 
**Lymphocyte infiltration and type II pneumocyte hyperplasia
 
*Can be confused with or coexisting with [[Lungs Inflammatory - Pathology#Verminous pneumonia|Parasitic pneumonia]]
 
 
 
 
 
==In Pigs==
 
 
 
===Inclusion body rhinitis===
 
[[Image:Inclusion body rhinitis.jpg|right|thumb|100px|<small><center>Inclusion body rhinitis (Image sourced from Bristol Biomed Image Archive with permission)</center></small>]]
 
 
 
*[[Herpesviridae|'''Herpesviridae, porcine cytomegalovirus''']]
 
*Disease of suckling piglets 1-5 wks of age
 
*Clinical signs: those associated with acute/subacute [[Nasal Cavity Inflammatory - Pathology#Infectious causes of rhinitis|rhinitis]] (ie: serous nasal discharge, progressing to catarrhal or purulent discharge with time and secondary bacterial infections; sneezing; pyrexia), fever in young piglets (3-8wks old)
 
*May progress to [[Paranasal Sinuses Inflammatory - Pathology#Sinusitis|sinusitis]], otitis media or [[Lungs Inflammatory - Pathology#Infectious causes of pneumonia|pneumonia]]
 
*Morbitity high, mortality low
 
*Gross pathology - catarrhal discharge becoming purulent (secondary infection)
 
*Histology:
 
**Large basophilic [[Degenerations and Infiltrations - Pathology#Cellular Inclusions|intranuclear inclusion bodies]] in the surface and subepithelium of nasal and sinus glandular epithelium with lymphocytic infiltration of the mucosa
 
**Bursting of nucleus with cell necrosis and sloughing of necrotic epithelium
 
*Can develop viraemic stage, with inclusions and focal necrotising lesions in other organs eg: renal tubular epithelium
 
**Usually younger piglets, can die during this phase
 
*Usually resolves if uncomplicated but rhinitis may persist if secondary infection is present
 
*May persist in pulmonary macrophages
 
 
 
 
 
===[[Swine Influenza|Swine influenza]]===
 
 
 
===Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome===
 
 
 
*The syndrome is caused by a small enveloped RNA virus which belongs to the new [[Arteriviridae|Arteriviridae]] group
 
*Replicates in and destroys macrophages and endothelial cells causing vasculitis -> viraemia -> virus shedding (nasal secretions, faeces)
 
*Clinical signs: respiratory and reproductive failure, weaned pigs, tachypnoea, eyelid oedema, conjunctivitis
 
*Moderate to severe interstitial [[Lungs Inflammatory - Pathology#Infectious causes of pneumonia|pneumonia]] in the cranial lobe
 
*Superimposed bacterial infections are common
 
*Infectious disease in swine that emerged 10 years ago
 
*Today, PRRS is endemic in many if not all the pig-producing countries
 
 
 
 
 
===Postweaning multisystemic wasting syndrome (PMWS)===
 
 
 
*Caused by a [[Circoviridae|porcine circovirus]] alone or in combination with [[Parvoviridae|porcine parvovirus]]
 
*May cause mild [[Lungs Inflammatory - Pathology#Interstitial pneumonia|interstitial pneumonia]], failure of lungs to collpse on opening the thoracic cavity
 
*Microscopically: thickening of alveolar wall due to type 2 pneumocyte hyperplasia
 
 
 
 
 
===[[Porcine respiratory coronavirus]]===
