Among 1428 examined native breeds of sheep (658) and goats (770) during the period from August 2000 to February 2003, the incidence of con genital anomalies was 8.4%. The prevalence was higher in sheep (9.4%) than in goats (7.5%). Local Osemi sheep breed and mixed goats breed showed the highest incidence. Twenty-four pat- terns of congenital anomalies were diagnosed with predomination of pelvic and perineal regions. Congenital anomalies of the urogenital and digestive systems showed the highest incidence than those of other body systems. The recorded congenital anomalies were reviewed and dis- cussed. Accurate diagnosis and surgical management were found helpful in the correction of some congenital anomalies in sheep and goats.
