Abstract: In recent years，young pigeon disease syndrome（YPDS）has widely spread in the world，causing huge economic losses to the pigeon breeding industry. At present，there are few studies on YPDS，diagnostic criteria， and specific drugs and vaccines，which brings great challenges to the prevention and control of YPDS. In order to better understand the syndrome，this article systematically reviews the etiology，prevalence，diagnosis and prevention and control measures of YPDS. Referring to the relevant literature at home and abroad in the past 30 years，the pathogens that may cause YPDS were systematically described，and each diagnosis method and control measures were summarized. YPDS is a multifactorial disease mainly caused by Pigeon circovirus （PiCV），Pigeon herpesvirus （PiHV）and Pigeon adenovirus（PiADV）. It can cause the death of young pigeons aged 7 to 15 weeks. The main clinical symptoms included depression，disordered feathers，anorexia，vomiting and diarrhea. At present，the mainprevention and control measures of this syndrome are to strengthen feeding management. This paper summarized the etiology，diagnosis and prevention and control measures of YPDS，which provides reference for production practice.
