Abstract

Seven days old cow-calf was admitted to the Veterinary Teaching Hospital, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Assiut University, Assiut, Egypt, with congenital malformations. Clinical examination revealed that the calf had a supernumerary ectopic limb at the perineum (perineomelia), atresia ani, and a rectovaginal fistula. The accessory limb was excised from the perineum. Anal opening was created at the base of the tail. Therectovaginal fistula was obliterated transvaginal.
