Renal function in heifers

Australian Journal of Agricultural Research, 1967
Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) (inulin clearance) has been studied in heifers which showed marked changes in weight over the test period. It is concluded that changes in GFR are not related to the weight of the animal, but are a characteristic of the animal. It is erroneous to use a standard weight as a common reference point for cattle.

Cutaneous histiocytoma in a heifer

Journal of Comparative Pathology, 1987
A young Friesian heifer developed multiple skin nodules. Histologically, the tumours appeared similar to the canine cutaneous histiocytoma. Over the next few weeks, the tumours underwent regression. These findings are considered to be consistent with a case of hitherto unreported bovine cutaneous histiocytoma.
