Congenital Dysgenesis (Brachiomelia) of the Forearm Amongst West African Dwarf Triplet Kids in Nigeria: A Case Report

Abstract

Unilateral and bilateral congenital dysgenesis (brachiomelia) of the forarm in three kid goats is reported. The animals were born with a miniature forearm/antebrachium, but the shoulder, arm and manus were apparently unaffected. Radiological examination revealed a reduced and bent morphology of the forearm.
