Avian Ganglioneuritis Made More Understandable

Q&A with Bob Dahlhausen, DVM and Susan Orosz, PhD, DVM, DABVP (Avian), DECZM (Avian), recorded October 25, 2025. PDD (proventicular dilitation disease) now has a more descriptive name - Avian Ganglioneuritis (AGN). AGN is often correlated with avian bornavirus - but not always! These are two distinct conditions that should be addressed independently. Many birds are AGN positive but never show symptoms. Some are symptomatic but manage fine on medications. Others succumb. It’s not thought to be contagious, but we should all be more informed about the diagnostics and treatments. Dr. Dahlhausen owns Veterinary Molecular Diagnostics (VMD), the only U.S. lab with a patent to test for AGN. This is a complicated disease. We must continue to learn more about how to diagnose and manage it. Dr. Dahlhausen and Dr. Orosz remain on the cutting edge of this important research!
