Liver Biopsies🐄

Liver biopsies are a useful tool to measure trace mineral levels in cattle. Trace minerals that we test for are Cobalt, Copper, Iron, Magnesium, Manganese, Molybdenum, Selenium and Zinc.

To take a biopsy, we clip and surgically prepare an area between the 10th and 11th rib (cows have 13 ribs in total). Lidocaine is injected locally to freeze the area then a scalpel is used to make a small stab incision. A biopsy needle is then inserted through the body wall and diaphragm into the liver. Observing the needle moving in time with her breathing is an indicator that we are in the right location and have gone through the diaphragm. A small sample of liver is taken into the biopsy needle to be sent for testing. The results are used as a tool to evaluate and potentially make changes to the diet.

By reporting all calf abnormalities, you help the industry better understand and manage potential genetic issues—some of which may still be unknown today. Early detection and documentation are key to preventing larger-scale problems in the future.

📢 If you’ve had an abnormal calf recently, please take a few minutes to report it. Every report counts in maintaining the health and integrity of our Holstein breed.

🔗 Form link is in the comments. Thank you for doing your part!

En signalant toute anomalie observée chez un veau, vous aidez l’industrie à mieux comprendre et à gérer les facteurs génétiques potentiels, même ceux que l’on ne connaît pas encore. Le dépistage précoce et la consignation des données permettent de prévenir des problèmes à plus grande échelle dans l’avenir.

📢 Si un veau anormal est né récemment dans votre troupeau, prenez quelques minutes pour le déclarer. Chaque déclaration compte pour préserver la santé et l’intégrité de la race Holstein.

Heifers do the craziest things!

This gal was playing with a carabiner clip on a gate and managed to get her tongue stuck and cut open. One of the risks of tongue injury is the impact it can have on an animals ability to eat which can lead to dysphagia and weight loss.

With a little sedation, Dr. Kiri did a great job suturing it back together! This primary closure of the wound will help speed up healing and maintain usage. The tongue also has a lot of vascularization (blood flow) which generally allows for quick healing. She will be monitored for weight loss and her ability to eat during the healing period. She has also been started on antibiotics to minimize infection risk and anti-inflammatories for pain and inflammation control.
