The objective of this work was to describe a case of acrobustitis, characterized by inflammation of the foreskin tip in bulls, causing infertility, reproductive and economic losses. It is considered as one of the main pathologies of the reproductive system of zebu bulls, given its anatomical and morphological characteristics.
