Key Points

The research aims to explore the relationship between mycoplasma detection and the occurrence of lesions in pigs.
Conducted a retrospective analysis using the animal hospital information system (TIS) from 2019 to 2022.
Recorded both positive pathogen detection via PCR/cultivation and macroscopic/histological lesions.
Analyzed correlations between diagnostic results and pathological changes in the data.
Co-infection with M. hyopneumoniae and M. hyorhinis was associated with increased lung lesions in sampled pigs.
M. hyorhinis alone was found to cause mycoplasma-typical lung lesions.
Most pathogen detections coincided with lesions; however, lesions due to M. hyorhinis and M. hyosynoviae in joints were not representative due to low case numbers.

Retrospective analysis examines mycoplasma infections and lung lesions in pigs, indicating significant correlations.
