Osteodystrophia fibrosa in young goats.
Three goats with osteodystrophia fibrosa are described. The main lesions were confined to the mandibles, although in two of the three all bones were rarefied and there were longbone fractures. In two of the three goats, there was evidence of a dietary cause due to selective feeding. In the third, the history was insufficient to indicate a likely cause.
