ABSTRACT
Clinical, radiographic, biochemical and pathologic features of osteodystrophia fibrosa were described in 9 native Egyptian goats of different ages [0.5-3 years]. The affected animals were suffering mainly from being off-food together with a visible bilateral, soft, nonpainful swelling of the maxilla and /or m and ible. Radiography of the affected goats revealed generalized loss of bone density involving both cortical and cancellous bone tissue, with thin cortices. Widespread areas of rarefaction particularly in the m and ible were present. Serum biochemical evaluation showed increased alkaline phosphatase, alanine aminotransferase [ALT], aspartate aminotransferase [AST], urea and creatinine with low calcium and phosphorus levels. Osteodystrophia fibrosa was confirmed histologically
