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. Rajasthan University of Veterinary and Animal Sciences, Bikaner - 334001 |
