Key Points

  • To review the causes and clinical presentations of stunting diseases in broiler chickens.
  • Systematic review of existing literature on stunting diseases in broiler chickens.
  • Analysis of histological lesions associated with different syndromes.
  • Comparison of peak age occurrences for various stunting diseases.
  • Identified specific histological lesions that help differentiate stunting diseases.
  • Reported variations in peak ages of stunting disease occurrences.
  • Highlighted the potential role of virus co-infection in exacerbating stunting cases.

Abstract

The specificity of histological lesions are key to differentiating the syndromes.Differences are seen in the peak age of occurrence of different stunting diseases.Virus co-infection may play a role in stunting and may cause mixed stunted cases.
