Taxobox color violet name Bovine parvovirus virus group ii familia Parvoviridae genus Parvovirus species Bovine parvovirus Bovine parvovirus BPV , also known as Haemadsorbing Enteric Virus , is a member of the Parvoviridae parvivirus group, with three significant sub species BPV1, 2 and 3. BPV most commonly causes diarrhoea in neonatal calves and respiratory and reproductive disease in adult cattle . The distribution of the virus is worldwide. Transmission is both Vertical transmission vertical transplacental route and Horizontal transmission horizontal Fecal oral route oro faecal route . The virus is very resistant to chemical and physical challenges. Clinical signs and diagnosis Diarrhoea is often the only clinical sign in neonatal calves. Reproductive infection causes abortion and the birth of weak or stillborn calves. Respiratory signs such as coughing, dyspnoea and nasal discharge also can occur. The clinical signs of BPV may be made worse by concurrent GI infections. Immunofluorescence IF , PCR , Agglutination haemagglutination , ELISA and electron microscopy can be used to identify and diagnose the virus. Aborted fetuses are oedematous and have increased pleural and peritoneal fluid. Immunofluorescence IF can be used to detect the virus in fetal organs. Autopsy Post mortem examination of infected calves should show intestinal lesions. Treatment and control Treatment and control is achieved by vaccination of the dams during gestation . Appropriate hygiene and disinfection methods should also be employed.

Transient erythroblastopenia of childhood TEC is a slowly developing anemia of early childhood characterized by gradual onset of pallor . Presentation Individuals with TEC have a median age of presentation of 18 26 months however, the disorder may occur in infants younger than 6 months and in children as old as age 10 years. Because of the gradual onset of the anemia, children are often healthier than expected from their low hemoglobin levels. Cause The cause of TEC is unknown, but it has been suggested that an infection with Parvovirus B19 plays a role. ref name pmid11127313 cite journal author Geetha D, Zachary JB, Baldado HM, Kronz JD, Kraus ES title Pure red cell aplasia caused by Parvovirus B19 infection in solid organ transplant recipients a case report and review of literature journal Clinical Transplantation volume 14 issue 6 pages 586 91 year 2000 month December pmid 11127313 doi 10.1034 j.1399 0012.2000.140612.x url http onlinelibrary.wiley.com resolve openurl?genre article&sid nlm pubmed&issn 0902 0063&date 2000&volume 14&issue 6&spage 586 issn accessdate 2011 12 09 ref ref name pmid15956889 cite journal author Prassouli A, Papadakis V, Tsakris A, et al. title Classic transient erythroblastopenia of childhood with human parvovirus B19 genome detection in the blood and bone marrow journal Journal of Pediatric Hematology oncology volume 27 issue 6 pages 333 6 year 2005 month June pmid 15956889 doi url http meta.wkhealth.com pt pt core template journal lwwgateway media landingpage.htm?issn 1077 4114&volume 27&issue 6&spage 333 issn accessdate 2011 12 09 ref Prognosis Most patients recover completely within 1 2 months.

Reticulocytopenia can originate from congenital hemolytic anemia , especially when exacerbated by Parvovirus B19 infection. Can occur with Sickle Cell Anemia and Spherocytosis , where hemoglobin levels fall rapidly and the marrow cannot compensate, causing absence of reticulocytes. Reticulocytes are immature red blood cells . Hereditary spherocytosis causes hemolysis, which leads to reticulocytosis, not a decrease in reticulocytes. There is no problem with the bone marrow, as with aplastic anemia, therefore the bone marrow does compensate by producing more immature red blood cells to counteract the decrease in mature red blood cells .
