Abstract

Each body system is susceptible to congenital defects. The skeletal system is involved in many congenital defects and either an isolated part or the entire skeleton may be affected. Although many different skeletal dysplasias have been described in man, relatively few dealt with cattle (8). But, congenital skeletal defects are economically important in cattle.
