Abstract
This paper will describe a case of hemochromatosis, which has as of yet been reported in the veterinary literature very few times. It is a disease of iron overload in the liver that appears to be due to primary disorder in iron metabolism. This is an interesting case because hemochromatosis has not previously been reported in conjunction with a hepatic vascular anomaly, and the presentation of this case is not typical of the disease as it has been so far reported in cattle.
