title: [Infectious diarrheal diseases in swine: morphologic and microbiologic findings].
abstract: Infectious diarrhea in piglets can be caused by TGE, EVD and rota virus. The present report shows another viral agent (para-rota virus) to be present. In addition the report describes light and electronmicroscopic findings of the enteric mucosa caused by the agents mentioned. The degree and distribution of villous atrophy, one of the main histological findings, of infections with TGE, EVD, rota and para-rota virus is compared. A correlation of the results obtained with fluorescent antibody staining and ultrastructural diagnosis of agents was done. An application of the latter seems advisable in case of negative FA staining results.
