In our study, we aimed to present the cases of Coenurus cerebralis in domesticated and wild ruminants. The material of this study consisted of eight sheep, six mountain goats and three cattle admitted to the Department of Pathology of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine of Kafkas University, between 2016 and 2019, for necropsy. The animals presented various neurological symptoms, including rotation around their axis, opistotonus, loss of coordination, unilateral blindness and torticollis. Subsequently, routine systemic necropsy was performed. After routine tissue procedures, 5 μm thick sections were taken from paraffin blocks prepared for Hematoxylin Eosin staining. Sections were examined under light microscope to determine the histopathologic changes. In conclusion, the cases were diagnosed with Coenurus cerebralis, in the light of clinical, histopathological and parasitological findings. In three of the six goats, in addition to these parasitic cysts, Oestrus ovis larvae were detected in the frontal sinus. Oestrus ovis larvae were also observed in three of the eight sheep.
