Popis: Two 4-month-old domestic rabbit littermates were presented for evaluation of suspected swimmer puppy syndrome. Further diagnostics revealed the presence of pectus excavatum and congenital cardiac anomalies. Both rabbits were treated with hobbles, progressively improving ambulation. This is the first report of pectus excavatum and swimmer puppy syndrome in rabbits.
