In this context, enrofloxacin is an antibiotic widely used in veterinary medicine. On the other hand, information on the use of this drug in small ruminants is scarce. The purpose of this work was to perform a radiological study of goat kids submitted to a daily supplementation with enrofloxacin. The animals were fed with reconstituted cow's milk powder with the addition of the antibiotic (5 mg/kg/day). At 70 days of age, a radiological study was performed, using a control animal for com-parisons. This study showed a marked increase in cortical and bone density of the tho-racic joints of the animals that received the drug. It was found that the use of this scheme of administration caused joint alterations in the species. However, further inves-tigations are required in order to find an adequate administration protocol that does not generate biomechanical alterations in growing animals. El uso de antibióticos en medicina veterinaria está asociado a la prevención y tratamiento de enfermedades infecciosas, así como a una acción promotora del crecimiento. En este contexto, la enrofloxacina es un antibiótico ampliamente utilizado. Por otro lado, la información del uso de esta droga en crías de pequeños rumiantes es escasa. El propósito de este trabajo fue evaluar radiograficamente a cabritos suplementados diariamente con enrofloxacina. Los animales fueron alimentados con leche en polvo de vaca, reconstituida con el agregado del antibiótico (5 mg/kg/día). A los 70 días de edad se realizó un estudio radiológico, utilizando un animal control para las comparaciones. El estudio demostró un marcado aumento en la densidad cortical y ósea de las articulaciones anteriores de los animales que consumieron la droga. Se encontró que el uso de este esquema de administración provocó alteraciones articulares en la especie caprina.
