Abstract
Two mastocytomas of the liver of sheep are described. The specimens were obtained during a survey of hepatic neoplasia that was conducted on abattoir-slaughtered sheep. Although tissues other than the liver were not examined, both tumours had metastasised, one to the portohepatic lymph node, and the other intrahepatically. It is believed that this is the first report of mastocytoma in this species.Keywords
