Abstract

The purpose of this report is to describe and document the rare anatomical variation of the right phrenic nerve seen in a male donkey. During routine dissection, a deviation of Nervus phrenicus dexter was detected. The phrenic nerves – left and right, were found to pas more ventral and specially right nerve was dislocated from caval vein plica in additional pleural fold. The physiological changes or clinical complications that may occur as a result of nerve dislocation have been discussed.
