RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: A healthy, 1,5 year old female wild boar (Sus scrofa) was shoot in a hunting district in Switzerland on June 22, 2023. The meat inspection revealed noticeable skin changes on all four distal extremities which were described histologically as multifocal epidermal hyperplasia and moderate orthokeratotic hyperkeratosis. The rest of the animal body, the organs and the lymph nodes were without any obvious lesions. The diagnosis of papilloma virus-associated exophytically growing papillomas was made. The venison was approved as fit for human consumption.
INTRODUCTION: Un sanglier femelle (Sus scrofa) en bonne santé, âgé d'un an et demi, a été abattu dans le nord de la Suisse le 22 juin 2023. L'inspection de la viande a révélé des modifications cutanées notables sur les quatre extrémités distales des membres qui ont été décrites histologiquement comme une hyperplasie épidermique multifocale et une hyperkératose orthokératosique modérée. Le reste du corps de l'animal, les organes et les ganglions lymphatiques ne présentaient aucune lésion évidente. Le diagnostic de papillomes à croissance exophytique associés à des papillomavirus a été posé. La venaison a été déclarée propre à la consommation humaine.

Several attempts have been made to categorize equid- and bovid-specific bovine papillomavirus 1 (BPV1) isolates based on sequence tags. This study includes newly determined sequence information from 33 BPV1 isolates of equine, asinine and bovine origin and investigates sequence bias due to host species. Twenty of the viral genomes were sequenced over their entire length and a further thirteen were sequenced, including flanking sequences, at two specific sites, the LCR and the E5 ORF. Alignment and analyses of the sequences did not reveal statistically significant site differences between the sequences of bovine and equid origin. None of the proposed sites of divergence noted by other authors demonstrated significant species-specific characteristics. Our results suggest that BPV1 is shared between equine, asinine and bovine host species, and that viral transfer between bovines and equids is a repeated and ongoing phenomenon.
