Two cases of holoacardius amorphus totalis are described and the classification, epidemiology, aetiology and pathophysiology of the condition are reviewed. One case is the first reported example of holoacardius amorphus totalis in a dairy cow carrying twins induced by embryo transfer. No evidence of an infectious aetiological agent was detected in the two cases.
