Economic Impact and Disease Insights: Understanding Organ Condemnation in Cattle Slaughtered at Bahir Dar Abattoir

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 2, March 2026.
From 334 cattle slaughtered in the Bahir Dar municipal abattoir, different lesions resulting in total or partial organ condemnation were found in organs of 12 (3.6%) cattle. Organs affected by different lesions or disease were liver 14.6% (49/334), lung 9.9% (33/334), heart 2.40% (8/334), kidney 3.6% (12/334) and tongue 0.9% (3/334).
