Abstract
A crossbred cow was presented with calving two days before and no let down of milk from all four quarters. Animal had history of mastitis during the previous lactation. Physical examination revealed hard mass at base of all four teats. Clinical examination with teat probe revealed patent teat canal in all four quarters. Tentatively the condition was diagnosed as udder fibrosis due to chronic mastitis. To confirm the diagnosis, contrast radiography of udder was performed. Iodinated contrast radiography agent was injected in to each quarter. Radiographs confirmed udder fibrosis due to chronic mastitis.
