Abstract
This is the first description of malignant catarrhal fever-like lesions associated with ovine herpesvirus-2 (OvHV-2) infection in goats with central nervous symptoms. The diagnosis was based on typical histological lesions characterized by systemic lymphohistiocytic and fibrinoid vasculitis and confirmed by polymerase chain reaction and subsequent phylogenetic analysis of the detected OvHV-2 sequences.
