Abstract
Summary During the examination of 69 male and 18 female rabbits a hitherto unknown muscular condition was found in one female and 19 male animals, otherwise healthy. The aetiology of the condition is unknown, but it is assumed that it is a sex-linked, hereditary anomaly. The histopathological changes are mostly restricted to the distal end of the quadriceps femoris muscle and resemble muscular dystrophy of man.
