? 2022 Elsevier LtdThe recognition of lesions of the mammary gland in small ruminants is a useful diagnostic procedure that can aid in the identification of several udder diseases. This article reviews the main pathological lesions in this organ in sheep and goats. Mastitis is, by far, the most commonly diagnosed change. Acute clinical mastitis is associated with bacterial infections, mainly Staphylococcus aureus or Mannheimia haemolytica. Lesions related to subclinical and chronic mastitis are also described, either as localized cases or as a part of systemic diseases such as contagious agalactia, maedi-visna or tuberculosis. Neoplasia is rare in the mammary gland of sheep and goats with sporadic mammary adenocarcinomas most commonly reported. Teat lesions, including those due to trauma, orf virus infection or papillomas, are predisposing factors for the subsequent development of mastitis.
