Description Evaluation of clinical cases of dystocia in buffaloes presented
during one year to the referral centre revealed a higher incidence
(58.82%) of dystocia due to uterine torsion. Twenty five buffaloes suffering
from uterine torsion presented to the veterinary clinic and were examined
for stage of gestation, degree, site and direction of torsion. Three blood
samples were collected from each animal (at the time of presentation, 1 hr
and 24 hr after fetal delivery) to investigate the concerntrations of SGOT,
SGPT, bilirubin, creatinine and BUN and compared with control (n=5
normal parturient buffaloes). Results showed that uterine torsion in
buffaloes occurred mostly in multiparous buffaloes (56%) at full-term
(72%), in clockwise (92%) direction and postcervical (80%) location. It was
mostly of 180° (48%) followed by 360° (32%) and >360° (20%). Eighty
percent buffaloes were successfully corrected by rolling method of
detorsion, and >2 rolls (40%) were needed to correct the severe torsions.
Most cases were accompanied with closed (24%) and insufficient dilated
(24%) than dilated cervix (32%) which was altered after drug therapy into
113

opened (64%) and closed cervix (16%). Caesarean section was needed in
36% cases including failed cases of detorsion by rolling and indilated
cervix after successful rolling. Sixty percent fetuses were found as male.
Fetal and maternal mortalities occurred in 96% and 12% of the cases,
respectively. Biochemical analysis revealed significant (P< 0.01) changes
in the SGOT, SGPT, bilirubin, creatinine and BUN in the affected buffaloes
than the control. In conclusion, uterine torsion affected buffaloes are
associated with hepatic and renal dysfunction.
