Abstract : A 3-year-old female dog in Karnataka, India, was presented for a 4-day history of vomiting and no defaecation [date not given]. Ultrasonography revealed a hyperechoic mass in the intestinal lumen. Laparotomy and enterotomy was used to remove a mango kernel and the dog recovered uneventfully.
