Sažetak

This case presents a clinical, radiological and histopathological description of ectopic lung in a calf. The present case was a 45-day-old, female Simmental calf, showing a congenital mass in the lower neck region. Upon clinical inspection, it was determined that the calf was in excellent condition, but a pedunculated tumorlike mass appeared in the neck region. Palpation revealed that the mass had normal body temperature and was somewhat hard and flexible. The mass was surgically removed under inhalation anesthesia and diagnosed as an ectopic lung based on the histopathological examination. The calf was monitored for two years after the operation and was observed to be healthy and better developed than its peers. We concluded that a rare case like this should be presented as a contribution to the literature and veterinary practice.
