title: [The "other" parvovirus: first description of the minute virus of canines (Canine parvovirus type 1) in Germany].
abstract: During an investigation of a late abortion in a Yorkshire terrier minute virus of canines (MVC) antigen could be demonstrated in fetal tissues by immunofluorescence. The bitch had a high specific anti-MVC serum titer when tested about four weeks after the abortion. Those results implicate an etiological role of MVC in this abortion and to our knowledge it presents the first described case of a MVC-associated abortion in Germany.
