Abstract
This paper reports a case of vagus nerve damage in a ewe due to the presence of a mineralized Cysticercus tenuicollis cyst in the omentum, adjacent to the reticulum and over the ventral branch of the nerve. The clinical course, surgical management and post-mortem findings of vagus indigestion are described.For the author's knowledge this is the first description of this syndrome in sheep.
