Proventriculitis in Broiler Chickens: Effects of Immunosuppression
Avian Diseases, 2004Proventriculitis in broilers causes carcass condemnation when swollen proventriculi tear during evisceration. The cause of this proventriculitis is unknown, but several infectious agents have been associated with it. One such agent, infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV), has been implicated as a cause of proventriculitis, but a direct effect of this ...

Infectious proventriculitis causing runting in broilers
Proventriculitis, runting and poor feed conversion sometimes associated with rachitis, was seen in chickens on a large broiler farm. It was shown that the proventriculitis was caused by an infectious agent.

Infectious Bursal Disease Virus and Proventriculitis in Broiler Chickens
Avian Diseases, 2003Acute necrotic proventriculitis is a naturally occurring disease of broiler chickens that causes proventricular rupture during routine evisceration. Although infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) has been implicated, it has not been proven to be a direct cause of this disease.

Catarrhal proventriculitis associated with a filamentous organism in pet birds. [PDF]
Catarrhal proventriculitis due to infection by an unidentified organism was diagnosed in 79 of 534 pet birds examined histologically. It was more prevalent in domestic birds (70 cases) than in imported ones (9 cases). A high incidence of the disease was encountered in budgerigars (Melopsittacus undulatus) and it was occasionally found in finches ...

Birnavirus‐associated proventriculitis in French broiler chickens
TRANSMISSIBLE viral proventriculitis (TVP) has been described sporadically in broiler chickens in the USA for decades. Clinically, this disease is characterised by impaired growth (‘runting’), poor feed conversion and limited mortality. Gross lesions are limited to enlargement and pallor of the proventriculus (Dormitorio and others 2007).

A bacterial proventriculitis in canaries(Serinus canaria)
A description is given of the pathomorphology and pathomorphogenesis of a bacterial infection of the proventriculus of canaries. The cause appeared to be a large, rod-shaped, Grampositive bacterium, in which no spore formation could be observed. Cultivation in vitro has not as yet been achieved.

Reproduction of Proventriculitis in Commercial and Specific-Pathogen-Free Broiler Chickens
Avian Diseases, 2005Proventriculitis was studied by experimentally reproducing the disease in broiler chickens. One-day-old infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) and infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) antibody positive commercial broilers and 1-day-old antibody negative specific-pathogen-free (SPF) broilers were orally gavaged with proventricular homogenates produced from

Transmissible Viral Proventriculitis Identified in Broiler Breeder and Layer Hens
Avian Diseases, 2012Transmissible viral proventriculitis (TVP) is a recognized cause of production losses in broiler chickens, but previously it has not been reported in broiler breeder and commercial layer hens. In this study, TVP was identified in broiler breeder and commercial layer hens, 9-20 wk of age, based on histopathologic detection of characteristic microscopic ...

Runting Stunting Syndrome Associated with Transmissible Viral Proventriculitis in Broiler Chickens
This report describes an outbreak of transmissible viral proventriculitis (TVP) associated with runting stunting syndrome (RSS) in 25- and 28-day-old broiler chickens, in which chicken proventricular necrosis virus (CNPV) was detected. Clinical signs included poor uniformity, very small birds for their age, increased mortality, and culling of smaller ...

Emergence of gyrovirus 3 in commercial broiler chickens with transmissible viral proventriculitis
Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, 2018Gyrovirus 3 (GyV3) has been identified in faeces from children with acute gastroenteritis. However, whether GyV3 is prevalent in poultry has not been determined to date. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to isolate GyV3 from commercial broiler chickens with transmissible viral proventriculitis (TVP) in China.
