ADV Full Form in Medical term is Aleutian Disease Virus. Mink, raccoons, ferret, and perhaps other Mustilidae family members are susceptible to infection with Aleutian Disease Virus (ADV), a parvovirus. Since ADV is so resilient, it can persist for a long time without a host. Multiple ADV strains may cause illness in ferrets, it is thought. Some varieties of ADV might be more infectious and lethal than others, similar to how different types of the virus in people can cause varying degrees of illness.
The most concerning aspect of ADV is the fact that it is transferred by animals who themselves show no signs of illness. Neither the incubation period nor the shedding period are known at this time. Some cases of ADV are active (when symptoms are present) whereas others are latent. ADV can be transmitted orally, gastrointestinally, genitourinarily, and transplacentally. The virus might also spread through the air, according to certain research conducted in Europe. Infection is most likely to be spread by direct contact with infected objects or surfaces.
ADV can cause a wide variety of symptoms in ferrets, including tarry stools, enlarged spleen, lethargy, urine incontinence, etc
The other full forms of ADV in medical are Arterial deep venous.
