The present study was carried out on 129 animals registered during field trips to villages of 27 provinces allover Egypt form 2003 – 2018. Animals were cattle (n=43), buffaloes (n=38), sheep (n=20), goats (n=11), camels (n=3), donkeys (n=7) and horses (n=7). 6 types of congenital and acquired fistulae were recorded in farm animals namely; recto-vaginal (n=58), urethral (n=31), teat (n=14), salivary (n=14), oral (n=9) and perianal (n=3). Diagnosis was based on case history and clinical examination conducted in the field. Surgical treatment was performed using routine maneuvers reported in literature and textbooks. Results indicated that surgical intervention is the only possible solution for treatment of more than 83% of all registered congenital and acquired fistulae to satisfy the requirements of the owners and make the affected animals more profitable to national income.
