Abstract EN
Ovine lipomatosis was observed in a herd of native breed of sheep.

Tracing the history of the herd, animals raised and kept on the rest of different typed of maise, wheat and growing grass.
While, drinking water was artisan water.
Selected cases of the herd were used for further biochemical analysis of some indices reflecting the fat metabolism on the other hand some cases were slaughtered for post-mortem changes.
Biochemical indices included total lipids, Triglycerides phospholipids and serum selenium.
Postmortem findings showed massive amount of omental adipose tissues with lumpish lesions, and massive fat depot showing lumpish lesion of calcification in mesenteric fat too.
