Abstract
Myxomatosis is a specific disease of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) due to a virus belonging to the Leporipoxvirus genus, These last ten years the clinical signs of this disease have changed, the w ell-known nodular forms being gradually replaced by a respiratory or p oxless myxomatosis. The authors present a clinical and pathological st udy of an atypical strain isolated in Belgium.
