Abstract
A virus etiology appeared probable in three cases of urethro-conjunctlvo-synovial syndrome. The presence of bodies very similar to virus inclusion bodies in the urethral epithelial cells, the isolation of elementary and initial bodies in chick embryos which closely resembled those found in well-known virus diseases, and the occurrence of malformations of the chick embryo in the inoculated eggs led to this conclusion.Keywords
