Findings. Methods for investigation
Methods for investigation Differential diagnosis Clinical signs History At harvest-time on four sites in Norway many Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) are downgraded due to spinal deformities. These shorten the body in length and give an exaggerated condition factor (1.8 to 2.2). No abnormal mortalities or other health problems during life cycle. Fish are shortened and deeper than normal with high condition factor, but otherwise appear healthy. Skeletal deformity caused by parasitism, genetic aetiology, trauma, environmental factors, some or all of the above. post mortems* radiography histology* tissue analysis parasitology/fresh microscopy* epidemiology feed analysis Post mortem: proliferation of the connective tissue around the vertebral column at two specific areas (Figures 7 & 8). Figure 7. Fillet of deformed salmon showing proliferation of connective tissue around the vertebral column (arrowed) (Copyright H. Rodger).
Figure 8. Cross section through vertebral column of deformed salmon showing normal vertebral disc (right) and abnormal disc with marked connective tissue proliferation (left) (Copyright H. Rodger). Parasitology/fresh microscopy: no significant findings. Radiography: vertebral bodies abnormal in specific areas, appearing deeper, compressed with intervertebral space significantly reduced (Figure 9).
