The most consistent histopathologic finding of ADV in ferrets is liver disease due to infiltration of the liver by plasma cells, lymphocytes, and macrophages. Enlarged lymph glands and lesions throughout the body may also be found in many, but not all, cases. Mink with ADV commonly develope kidney disease, but ferrets do not seem as prone to this development.
