dc.description.abstractPectus excavatum is a congenital abnormality of the sternum and costochondro cartilages that results in dorsoventral flattening and narrow wing of the thorax. A 20 days old, male Rottweiler pup was presented to the Department of Veterinary Pathology, Madras Veterinary College, Chennai for the post mortem examination with a history of anorexia, dyspnea, vomition and inability to walk properly since birth. Necropsy revealed laterally splayed hind legs, dorsal deviation of sternebrae towards spine and dorsoventral compression of thorax. Flat chest compressed the right intermediate and left cardiac lobes of lungs and were dark with adherence of thin fibrin shreds. The vertebral and frontosagital indices were 5.6 and 2.9 respectively. This case was diagnosed as pectus excavatum and swimmer syndrome due to congenital deformity in thoracic cavity and splaying of the limbs.
