In this report, a case of cyclopia with otocephaly in a Pirlak lamb was presented which has not been reported previosly in ruminants. A two years old-nulliparous Pirlak ewe was referred to the clinics of Afyon Kocatepe University, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine with the complaint of dystocia. Cesarean section was performed and a dead female lamb was extracted out from the uterus. The number and size of placentomes were reduced at the placental sites. Morphologic and macroscopic examination of the lamb demonstrated that there were some congenital anomalies, especially an eye (cyclopia) and otocephaly, at the head of lamb, however no other anomalies were defined at the other parts of body. On the other hand there were no whole mouth space, maxillar and mandibular bones, teeth (dysgnathia), no nose (arhinia) and tongue (aglossia). Nevertheless, there was a small hole at the bottom of the one eye opening to pharynx, oesophagus and trachea (microstomia). The left and right auricles were adherent together on the both sides of the small hole (synotia). At necropsy, the brain was not normal, rather small and edematous, having any brain lobes and gyrus. Examination of thoracic, abdominal and pelvic spaces revealed no abnormality.
