Swine vesicular disease (SVD) is an acute, contagious viral disease of swine caused by swine vesicular disease virus, an Enterovirus.[1] It is characterized by fever and vesicles with subsequent ulcers in the mouth and on the snout, feet, and teats. The pathogen is relatively resistant to heat, and can persist for a long time in salted, dried, and smoked meat products.[2] Swine vesicular disease does not cause economically important disease, but is important due to its similarity to foot-and-mouth disease.[3]

Swine vesicular disease is most commonly brought into a herd by the introduction of a subclinically infected pig.[2] The disease can be transmitted in feed containing infected meat scraps,[4] or by direct contact with infected feces (such as in an improperly cleaned truck).
After an incubation period up to 7 days, the signs associated with swine vesicular disease occur.[5] The first sign is a transient mild fever.[5] Other signs include:
- Vesicles in the mouth and on the snout and feet
- Lameness and an unsteady gait, shivering, and jerking–type leg movements
- Ruptured vesicles can cause ulcers on limbs and feet, and foot pads may be loosened.
Young animals are more severely affected. Recovery often occurs within a week. Mortality is negligible.
Swine vesicular disease has the same clinical signs as foot-and-mouth disease, and can only be diagnosed by laboratory testing.[4]
Swine vesicular disease was first identified in Italy in 1966.[6] In 1971, an outbreak occurred in Hong Kong,[6] and the disease was subsequently found other countries in Europe and Asia.[4]
