Malignant catarrhal fever: A review
The Veterinary Journal, 2009Malignant catarrhal fever (MCF) is a fatal lymphoproliferative disease of cattle and other ungulates caused by the ruminant gamma-herpesviruses alcelaphine herpesvirus 1 (AlHV-1) and ovine herpesvirus 2 (OvHV-2). These viruses cause inapparent infection in their reservoir hosts (wildebeest for AlHV-1 and sheep for OvHV-2), but fatal lymphoproliferative

The Bovine Practitioner, 1980
Malignant catarrhal fever (MCF), also known as bovine malignant catarrh or snotsiekte, is an acute, usually fatal, generalized in disease of cattle and several species of wild ruminants. The disease is characterized by fever, catarrhal rhinitis and conjunctivitis, enlarged lymph nodes, and mortality of nearly 100 percent.

Malignant catarrhal fever (MCF) is invariably a fatal disease, primarily of ruminants, caused by gammaherpesviruses belonging to the genus Macavirus. At least ten different forms of MCF have been identified; two are very similar and well-known forms of MCF, i.e. wildebeest-derived MCF and sheep-associated MCF. These two forms are clinico-pathologically

Malignant Catarrhal Fever in Greater Kudus
Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1974SUMMARY Malignant catarrhal fever was diagnosed in 3 greater kudus (Tragelaphus strepsiceros) at the St Louis Zoo. Clinical signs included anorexia, lethargy, incoordination, shaking of head, photophobia, and copious lacrimation and nasal discharge. Gross necropsy findings included corneal opacity, abomasal ulcers, enlarged lymph nodes, edematous lungs,

Malignant Catarrhal Fever: Inching Toward Understanding
Annual Review of Animal Biosciences, 2014Malignant catarrhal fever (MCF) is an often lethal infection of many species in the order Artiodactyla. It is caused by members of the MCF virus group within Gammaherpesvirinae. MCF is a worldwide problem and has a significant economic impact on highly disease-susceptible hosts, such as cattle, bison, and deer.

The malignant catarrhal fever complex
Comparative Immunology, Microbiology and Infectious Diseases, 1991Malignant catarrhal fever (MCF) is defined as a clinicopathological syndrome caused by related herpesviruses and acquired from persistently infected wildebeest and sheep. There is convincing epidemiologic and virologic evidence that Alcelaphine herpesvirus 1 (AHV1) causes the wildebeest-derived disease (WD-MCF).

Malignant catarrhal fever of deer
Proceedings of the Royal Society of Edinburgh. Section B. Biological Sciences, 1984SynopsisMalignant catarrhal fever (MCF) is reviewed and recent findings described. It is defined as a fatal disease which affects many species of Bovidae and Cervidae, characterized by widespread necrosis and lymphoid cell proliferation and can be caused by at least two infectious agents.

Transmission studies with bovine malignant catarrhal fever
Veterinary Record, 1978The intravenous administration of whole blood from a pathologically confirmed field case of bovine malignant catarrhal fever (MCF) resulted in the appearance of the disease in three of five experimental calves 18 to 28 days later. Infection was maintained by serial calf transmissions, and produced clinical and pathological changes identical to those of

Malignant Catarrhal Fever in White-Tailed Deer
Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1971SUMMARY Malignant catarrhal fever occurred in 3 white-tailed deer. Vasculitis with lymphoid infiltration was the typical lesion and occurred in the brain, kidneys, liver, heart, mesentery, lungs, skeletal muscle, urinary bladder, testes, and alimentary canal.

Transmission of malignant catarrhal fever to rabbits
Veterinary Record, 1980A farmed red deer in contact with a flock of lambing ewes developed malignant catarrhal fever (MCF). Tissues from this deer were homogenised and inoculated into two rabbits one of which developed a febrile response on the 11th day. This rabbit was killed on the following day after developing conjunctivitis and hyperaemia of the nostrils.
