Dual adenovirus and distemper virus pneumonia in a dog.
A case of simultaneous infection of the lungs of a dog with canine distemper virus (CDV) and canine adenovirus (CAV) is described. The techniques employed are histological stains, immunoperoxidase technique, and transmission electron microscopy. Two viruses are shown to infect the same cells. The significance of dual infection of the same cells is discussed in comparison with literature data on in vitro experiments.
