R.; DAMASCENO, T.; ALLIEVE, M.; CANAL, C. W.- DETECTION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF FIBROPAPILLOMA-ASSOCIATED TURTLE HERPESVIRUS IN MARINE TURTLES FROM BRAZIL(2009) RODENBUSH, C. R.; ALMEIDA, L. L.; MARKS, F. S.; BAPTISTOTTE, C.; PIRES, T. T.; WERNECK, M. R.; DAMASCENO, T.; ALLIEVE, M.; CANAl, C. W.Fibropapillomatosis (FP) is a neoplasic disease of marine turtles characterized by the presence of epithelial fibropapillomas and internal fibromas. Although the tumors are considered bening, the disease can be life-threatening; large cutaneous tumors can interfere with the turtles' locomotion, vision, swallowing, and breath-ing, and visceral tumors can be locally invasive and affect organ function.
