ABSTRACT. Thirteen anomalous calves with clefts of the face were morphologically examined, and craniofacial skeletons were studied in detail. According to the type and site of the cleft, four groups could be distinguished: median cleft lip and jaw (CLJ); median cleft lip, jaw, and palate (CLJP); lateral CLJ; and cleft palate (CP), including unilateral and bilateral type. Craniofacial skeletal abnormalities were observed in several bones at the roof, wall, and floor of the nasal cavity and at the boundary portion between the nasal and cranial cavities. Fissure formation at the cranial sutures, partial absence of the nasal process of the incisive bone, and opening of the bony palate were characteristic changes in median CLJ and CLJP, lateral CLJ, and CP, respectively. Furthermore, various associated changes were recognized in the median and paramedian skeletal elements of the face and other organs. The morphological changes of craniofacial skeletons with various types of clefts of the face depended on the site and degree of the cleft formation and reflected developmental errors of the facial embryonic segments. These changes would suggest disorders of the correlated development of facial processes and of other fetal organs of the face. For these conditions, etiologically hereditary cases were negative.-KEY WORDS: anomalous calf, craniofacial abnormality, facial cleft.

“…This virus infection is closely related to the Akabane and SBV infection; therefore, confirmatory diagnosis requires viral detection to differentiate infection between these three viruses [98]. Aino virus is transmitted between animals by insect vectors from Culicoides genus mosquitoes [90,95].…”

“…In naturally infected pregnant cattle, Aino virus has been associated with abortion [97], stillbirths, premature births and birth congenital malformation, including severe hydranencephaly [98] and/or arthrogryposis [99], unilateral cavitation in the cerebrum, microcephaly and cerebellar hypoplasia [92,93]. The type of abnormality seen can be related to the time of infection of the foetus [93]: early infection results in hydranencephaly and later infection results in arthrogryposis [99].…”

Schmallenberg virus (SBV) is a novel Orthobunyavirus causing mild clinical signs in cows and malformations in aborted and neonatal ruminants in Europe. SBV belongs to the family Bunyaviridae and is transmitted by biting midges. This new virus was identified for the first time in the blood samples of cows in the city of Schmallenberg in NorthRhine-Westphalia in November 2011. Since then the virus spread to several European countries. Here we describe the origin and emergence, as well as the transmission and the differential diagnosis of this virus, now known to be a serious threat to Veterinary Public Health.
