Emphysema in pigs, often referred to as pulmonary emphysema, is a respiratory condition characterized by the abnormal enlargement of air spaces in the lungs, leading to reduced lung function and oxygen exchange. It can result from various factors, including chronic respiratory infections, exposure to irritants, or poor ventilation in housing conditions. Symptoms may include labored breathing, coughing, and decreased exercise tolerance. Management typically involves improving environmental conditions and addressing underlying health issues.
