Ultrastructural researches on rabbit myxomatosis. Lymphnodal lesions
Veterinary Pathology
|July 1, 1977
Abstract:
Ultrastructural examination of head and neck lymph nodes in rabbits with spontaneous subacute myxomatosis showed fusion of immature reticuloendothelial cells which lead to the formation of polykarocytes. There was no ultrastructural evidence of viral infection of these polykaryocytes. Histiosyncytial lymphadenitis can be considered a specific lesion of myxomatosis.
