Abstract

From July to December in 1996 at hoggery in Okayama Prefecture, about 270 piglets showed edema of eyelids and nervous symptom about 10 days after weaning and acutely died. Three killed or dead pigs were necropsied, revealing histopathologically fibrinoid and hyaline degeneration of vascular walls in the brain stem and the submucosa of the small intestine. Verotoxigenic Escherichia coli (VTEC) O 139 was isolated from the brain, lymph nodes and intestinal contents. VTEC O139 of the same serotype as isolats from the dead cases was also detected from storage tank and drinking water in the hoggery, and no more outbreaks occurred after chlorinating water and complete sweeping-out and disinfecting of the farmhouses.
