Figure 1

Gross findings observed in newborn piglets naturally infected by SVA. Coronary band, 4-day-old piglet; observe the erosive lesion (0.7 cm in diameter) at the coronary band of the right forelimb (A). Abdominal cavity, 3-day-old piglet; there is mesocolonic oedema; the intestinal segment is dilated by diarrhoea and the mesocolon is swollen (B). Snout, 4-day-old piglet; there is multifocal ulceration of the skin (arrow) of the snout after rupture of a vesicle (C). Tongue, 6- day-old piglet; there is symmetric ulcerative glossitis (arrow) at the ventral face of the tongue (D). Fore limbs and hooves, 7-day-old piglet; observe ulcerations and crusting lesions (2 cm diameter) at the coronary bands and metacarpus with an erosive lesion at the margin of the coronary band of the forelimbs (E). Palmar footpad, 3-day-old piglet; there is a large ulceration (1.2 cm diameter) at the right footpad (F). Scale in cm.
