This study examined the geographical distribution of bovine clinical casuistry in the outpatient service for large animals at the Universidad de Córdoba (Colombia). Only those complete clinical histories were considered for the study that presented a definitive diagnosis. The cases treated were classified according to the affected system, definitive diagnosis, type of treatment (medical or surgical), and geographical location in Córdoba. The study included 6356 clinical histories of cases presented between 2005 and 2016; 77.09% of them in the bovine species, and the most affected system was the hematopoietic system with 79.29% of casuistry, followed by the integumentary system (11.18%), and the digestive system (2.86%). 73% of the municipalities of the department were included, where a high prevalence of. It was established that the hematopoietic system was affected by endoglobular hemotropic parasites such as Babesia spp. and Anaplasma spp., while the integumentary system was mainly affected by infestations caused by Rhabditis spp. (41%), followed by dermatophytosis (19%) and papillomavirus infections (16%). It can be concluded that the outpatient service of the Medical-Surgical Clinic of Large Animals at the Universidad de Córdoba has a wide and varied casuistry, which is demonstrated in the frequency of pathologies that affect large animals in Córdoba. The geospatial knowledge of diseases is an essential tool for proper professional performance.
