Abstract
Actinomycosis is a chronic infectious disease that mainly affects ruminants and can be transmitted to humans. It is characterized by the presence of a granulomatosis and suppurative lesion, located in the maxilla or mandible. The definitive diagnosis is based on biopsy or culture, but most of the time it is made based on the clinical appearance of the lesion. The present study aims to write a report of an eight-year-old bovine with an ulcerated lesion on the jaw caused by actinomycosis that was sent to the Veterinary Hospital das Faculdades Integradas de Ourinho
