Abstract
Bovine herpesvirus type 5 is an important pathogen in young and adult cattle and causes meningoencephalitis. The infection, although it causes low morbidity, can cause a lethality rate close to 100%. Diagnosis of the clinical disease is very important due to the similarities with other diseases that affect the cattle central nervous system, especially rabies. This revision aims to present topics related to the etiological agent, the disease, diagnosis and prophylaxis methods of bovine herpetic meningoencephalitis.
