POSTWEANING MULTISYSTEMIC WASTING SYNDROME: EPIDEMIOLOGICAL ISSUES

POSTWEANING MULTISYSTEMIC WASTING SYNDROME: EPIDEMIOLOGICAL ISSUES

This review pretended to describe issues related with the Postweaning Multisystemic Was­ting Syndrome (PMWS) especially the epidemiological ones. PMWSbelongs to the Porcine circovirus type 2 associated diseases (PCAVD). Its presentation could be associated with another non identified infectious agent or the interaction between multiple management practices and other infectious diseases. The disease epidemiological pattern hasn’t been clearly understood; PCV2 infection appears to be enzootic while PMWSappears to be epizootic. Both vertical and horizontal transmissions have been reported for PCV2, but the PMWSdevelopment has been related not only with PCV2 infection but also with some other aetiologies. Clinical signs and macroscopic lesions aren’t specific for PMWS. Diagnosis is based on the identification of microscopic lesions in lymphoid organs and the identification of the viral antigen within them. Preventive and control strategies have been focused on specific management practices that improve the environment where animals are kept perse­cuting the reduction of infections rates not only associated with PCV2.

El propósito de este trabajo fue revisar los aspectos relacionados con el síndrome de ema­ciación posdestete (Postweaning Multysistemic Wasting Syndrome, PMWS) enfatizando en sus características epidemiológicas. El PMWSpertenece a un grupo de enfermedades asociadas al Circovirus porcino tipo 2 (PCVD), cuya presentación podría relacionarse con otro agente infeccioso aún no identificado o con la interacción de múltiples factores vincu­lados con el manejo zootécnico y con la presencia de otros agentes infecciosos. El patrón epidemiológico de la enfermedad no está claramente definido pero se ha observado que la infección con PCV2 dentro de la población porcina sigue un curso enzoótico, mientras que el desarrollo del PMWSgenera una presentación epizoótica. Se han reportado tan­to la transmisión vertical como la horizontal, pero el impacto sobre el desarrollo de los animales podría involucrar, además del PCV2, otras etiologías. Los signos clínicos y las lesiones macroscópicas son inespecíficos de la enfermedad y su diagnóstico se basa en la identificación histopatológica de las lesiones características en los órganos linfoides junto con la identificación del antígeno viral asociado a ellas. La generación de estrategias de pre­vención y control se ha dirigido hacia el establecimiento de prácticas zootécnicas estrictas que mejoren las condiciones medioambientales en las que se mantienen los animales para disminuir la presión de infección asociada no solo al PCV2.
