EDEMA IN STILLBORN PIGLETS
Among the challenges faced by the activity are reproductive failures and problems with animal health. Several congenital and acquired alterations plague the herds, which can lead to the loss of piglets and, consequently, an increase in production costs and a decrease in the financial return of the activity. This report aims to present a case of stillbirth in a pig farm, describing the lesions found at necropsy and possible diagnosis. This case report is of a necropsy performed at the Laboratory of Animal Pathology of the Centro de Ensino Superior Riograndense – CESURG – Sarandi unit (RS) of a stillborn pig from a breeder farm in the city of Rondinha (RS).
