1984 年夏季和秋季，一家兽医教学医院爆发了马病毒性动脉炎 (EVA)。在 61 匹住院马中，有 16 匹观察到临床症状，包括腹侧、四肢和包皮水肿、轻度结膜炎伴流泪、发热以及呼吸和心率加快。在 16 匹临床受影响的马中，13 匹正在接受实验性腹部手术和/或参与消化实验； 13 人中有 9 人年龄 > 20 岁。另外三匹临床受影响的马是客户动物。十三匹客户马在没有临床症状的情况下产生了马动脉炎病毒的血清滴度。感染风险与密切接触、参与正在进行的实验研究以及住院时间有关。该病病情较轻，传播范围有限，并通过检疫成功控制。
An outbreak of equine viral arteritis (EVA) occurred at a veterinary teaching hospital in the summer and autumn of 1984. Clinical signs were observed in 16 out of 61 hospitalized horses and included ventral, limb and preputial edema, mild conjunctivitis with lacrimation, pyrexia and increased respiratory and heart rates. Of 16 clinically affected horses, 13 were undergoing experimental abdominal surgery and/or were involved in digestion experiments; 9 of the 13 were > 20 years of age. The three other clinically affected horses were client animals. Thirteen client horses developed serologic titers to equine arteritis virus in the absence of clinical signs. The risk of infection was associated with close contact, involvement in the experimental studies being conducted and length of hospitalization. The disease was mild, limited in spread and successfully controlled by quarantine.
