Horner's syndrome associated with parotid duct obstruction in a sheep.
A 9-year old, Rasa Aragonesa ewe was presented with a left-sided, facial, soft fluctuant swelling. The postmortem examination showed grass awns filling the entire length of the parotid gland duct. The presence of parotid duct obstruction with Horner's syndrome, previously unreported in sheep, is discussed.
