The connective tissue component of the caprine arthritis-encephalitis syndrome

TB Crawford, DS Adams, RD Sande, JR Gorham and JB Henson

The gross and microscopic connective tissue lesions in 12 goats with caprine arthritis-encephalitis (CAE) are described, including those from which a virus (CAEV) was isolated. Lesions were most often associated with synovial-lined structures including joints, tendon sheaths, and bursae, and were typified by synovial cell proliferations, subsynovial mononuclear cell infiltration, the presence of fibrin, fibrinous concretions, necrosis, and mineralization. Extrasynovial lesions were located in kidneys, vessels, and brain. The inflammatory infiltrates in these organs were predominantly mononuclear. Amyloid was also found in liver, spleen, and kidney. Microbiologic techniques failed to demonstrate any bacteria, mycoplasma, or chlamydia in the lesions.
