    Author: Müller M, Sachsse W, Zangger N.
    Journal: Schweiz Arch Tierheilkd; 1990; 132(4):199-203. PubMed ID: 2163101.
    Abstract:
    Based on an epidemic in Switzerland, the histopathological findings of a viremic Herpes infection in Spur-tailed and Spur-thighed mediterranean land tortoises are described for the first time. Horizontal viral transmission has been proved; the vertical transmission is suggested. An impression smear of the tongue enables an early clinical diagnosis.
