Porcine dermatitis and nephropathy syndrome

In newborn piglets the bladder is surrounded by umbilical embrionary arteries (that will later convert to the suspensory ligaments of the bladder).

Next to this arteries, there are the lymph nodes infected by Actinobacillus suis.

From this position, the infection is extended cranially through the lumboaortic lymph chain, causing the porcine dermatitis and nephropathy syndrome.
