Abstract
Three cases of mesothelioma in calves are described. Two were full-term foetuses, the other was 3 months old. There was ascites in all three. The tumours formed multiple, discrete nodules on the parietal and visceral peritoneum, and in the older calf also on the pleura. Lymph nodes were unaffected. The tumours appear to arise from the superficial layers of the serosa, and are considered to be of multicentric origin.
