Abstract
The authors describe pathologic and histopathologic findings of three cardiac aneurysms in horses, two of which in the left ventricle and on e in the right ventricle. The aneurysms were always associated with mu ltiple foci of myocardic fibrosis. A hypothesis concerning histogenesi s of the lesion is formulated.
