Abstract
A glandular choristoma found in the mesenteric lymph node of a goat would appear to represent the first reported case of non-neoplastic glandular inclusions in domestic animals. The origin of this type of lesion may be difficult to determine, but in the present case cytokeratin expression patterns suggested that the inclusions had an intestinal origin.
