Atresia ani case in goat kid

Atresia ani is a congenital anomaly in kids where the a**s is imperforate or absent.

Clinical presentation:
1. The kid may show signs of straining to defecate, abdominal distension, and discomfort within the first few days of life.
2. Meconium may be absent or visible in the re**um, but the a**s is imperforate.

Diagnosis:
1. Physical examination and palpation of the a**l region.
2. Radiography or ultrasonography to rule out other congenital anomalies.

Surgical correction:
1. Perform surgery as soon as possible, ideally within the first 24-48 hours of life.
2. Use local or general anesthesia, depending on the kid's condition and the veterinarian's preference.
3. Make a cruciate incision over the a**l region, taking care not to damage surrounding tissues.
4. Gently dilate the a**s and re**um, if necessary.
5. Suture the re**al mucosa to the skin to create a functional a**s.

Post-operative care:
1. Administer antibiotics and pain relief medication.
2. Monitor for signs of infection, dehiscence, or stricture.
3. Provide supportive care, such as nutritional supplements and hydration.

Prognosis:
1. The prognosis is generally good if surgery is performed promptly and the lamb is otherwise healthy.
2. Complications, such as infection or stricture, can affect the outcome.

# Case183
Case study: Tumor on Head in Goat
1. Case Details
-Animal: 5-year-old, female, 35 kg
-Breed/Use: Dairy goat
-History: Owner noticed a small, hard lump above the right eye 3 months ago. It slowly grew. Horn trauma history. Goat was still eating and milking.
-Clinical Signs:
1. Mass: 5 x 4 cm firm, irregular, non-painful mass on right frontal bone, above eye
2. Skin: Hair loss over mass, surface was ulcerated and crusty with no bleeding
3. Other: Right eye tearing due to mass pressing. No fever. Appetite normal.
4. Lymph nodes: Submandibular lymph node on same side slightly enlarged
-Differential Diagnosis: Squamous cell carcinoma, osteoma, abscess, hematoma

2. Diagnosis
1. Physical Exam + Palpation: Mass fixed to underlying bone, not movable
2. Fine Needle Aspiration: Showed abnormal keratinized cells

3. Treatment & Procedure
Because it was still localized and goat was valuable, surgical removal was chosen.

Step 1: Pre-op
1. Sedation, general + Local anesthesia with ring block around tumor
2. Clip + scrub area. Antibiotics started

Step 2: Surgical Excision
1. Wide excision: I removed tumor + 1-2 cm of normal skin around it. Goal: "clean margins" so cancer doesn't come back.
2. Bone check: Underlying frontal bone was scraped to remove any tumor invasion.
3. Closure: Skin was pulled together with non-absorbable sutures. Drain placed for 3 days.

Step 3: Post-Op Care
1. Antibiotics: Penicillin + Streptomycin for 7 days
2. Pain management: Loxin for 5 days
3. Wound care: Daily cleaning + povidone-iodine. Fly repellent spray (Teragen).
4. Suture removal: Day 17
5. Monitoring: Checked every month for recurrence for 6 months

Correction of Teat Injury in Cow
Teat injuries are common in dairy cows and if not corrected properly, they can cause permanent loss of that quarter, mastitis, or make the cow unmilkable.

Case Study: Teat Laceration Correction
Animal: 5-year-old cow, 2nd lactation, 68 days post-calving

History: Caught teat on fencing wire. 3 cm full-thickness cut on side of right rear teat. Milk leaking + blood.
Clinical Exam: Active bleeding, 3cm vertical laceration, 1/3rd of way down teat. Quarter still producing milk.

Correction Procedure - Surgical Repair
Done under local anesthesia + sedation. Teat surgery is done in "dry" conditions if possible.

Step 1: Preparation
1. Withhold milk: Milk out the affected quarter completely
2. Sedation + Local block: Cornual ring block + teat
base ring block with 2% Lignocaine
Sterility: Clip hair, scrub teat with povidone-iodine. This is THE most important step.

Step 2: Surgical Repair - 2 Layer Closure
1. Debride: Trim dead edges. Flush wound with sterile saline
2. 1st Layer - Mucosa: Close inner teat lining with absorbable suture like Vicryl 3-0. Use simple continuous pattern. Must be leak-proof.
3. 2nd Layer - Skin: Close outer skin with non-absorbable suture like Silk or Nylon 2-0. Use simple interrupted pattern.
4. Key Point: Sutures should NOT enter the teat cistern/teat ca**l. Only mucosa to mucosa.

Step 3: Post-Op Care
1.Antibiotics: Systemic Penicillin + streptomycin for 5 days
2. Anti-inflammatory: flunixin for 3 days
3. Teat Dip: After every milking with iodine dip
4. Milk-out: Milk that quarter 3-4 times daily gently by hand for first 7 days. No machine only teat siphon.
5. Teat Cannula: Sometimes a sterile teat dilator is placed for 3-5 days if near sphincter to prevent stricture
6. Suture removal: 10-14 days.

For Other Injuries
1.Teat Fistula: Surgical closure similar to laceration, but edges are freshened first.
2. Sphincter Tear: Sphincteroplasty surgery. Tricky. High failure rate. If severe, quarter may need to be dried off.
3. Stricture: Gradual dilation with teat dilators/slugs over weeks. Severe cases need "Teat Slitting" surgery by vet.

Right Metacarpal Fracture in Cow
Case Study: Right Metacarpal Fracture in Cow - Treated with Plaster Of Paris

1. Case Details
Animal: 4-year-old cow, 350 kg, female
History: Slipped in wet shed 1 days ago. Owner noticed non-weight bearing lameness on right forelimb. So he called me.
Clinical Signs:
- Lameness: Grade 4/5 - holding right front leg up, refuses to put weight
- Swelling: Moderate swelling from carpus to fetlock on right metacarpus
-Palpation: Pain, crepitus, abnormal mobility in mid-metacarpal region = closed fracture confirmed
-Systemic: Normal appetite, T: 101.8°F, alert
-Diagnosis: Closed, simple, transverse fracture of right metacarpal bone
Confirmed with X-ray. skin Scratch wound, no joint involvement.

2. Why POP / Robert Jones Bandage?
In cattle, internal fixation like plates/screws is expensive and risky due to weight. For metacarpal fractures below carpus, external coaptation with POP is common for stable fractures in adults, and standard for calves.

Goals: Immobilize, reduce pain, allow bone healing in 6-8 weeks.

3. POP Procedure / Treatment Protocol
Done under sedation + local nerve block

Step 1: Preparation
1. Sedate cow. Cleaned leg.

Step 2: Reduction
1. Closed reduction: Gentle traction + manipulation to align bone fragments.
2. Check alignment. If bone is too displaced/comminuted, surgery may be needed instead.

Step 3: POP Cast
1. Padding layer: Cotton roll + gamgee from below carpus to above fetlock. Prevents pressure sores.
2. Splints: Wooden splints placed on medial and lateral side for support. This is critical in cows due to heavy weight.
3. POP Cast: Plaster of Paris bandages soaked in water, wrapped in 6-8 layers over padding and splints. Mould it to shape of leg.
4. Cover: Waterproof tape on outside because cows stand in wet conditions.

Step 4: Aftercare
1. Pain management: NSAIDs like flunixin for 5 days
2. Antibiotics: Procaine Penicillin and streptomicin for 5 days
3. Housing: Soft, dry bedding. Separate from herd. Prevent slipping.
4. Cast checks: Every 3-4 days. Check for odor, discharge, swelling above/below cast.
5. *Cast change*: First cast for 3 weeks, then change. Total 6-8 weeks.

Tube Cystotomy procedure in four month buck

Case Presentation & Management: A buck was presented with a four-days history of anuria. Despite prior empirical medical therapy, no clinical improvement was observed. Upon physical examination, a tentative diagnosis of urinary bladder rupture secondary to obstructive urolithiasis was made, based on bilateral abdominal distension (tympany) and palpable fluid accumulation within the peritoneal cavity (uroperitoneum). Surgical intervention via tube cystotomy was initiated. Upon performing a laparotomy, the diagnosis was confirmed by the presence of a ruptured urinary bladder. A Foley catheter was successfully placed intraluminally into the bladder to divert urine flow and facilitate tissue healing. The procedure successfully resolved the life-threatening condition, and the buck has since made a complete, uneventful recovery.

Followup of case #172
Complete recovery of Tube Cystotomy case in cow calf

Clinical Success: Complete Recovery from Obstructive Urolithiasis via Tube Cystotomy in a Calf
This case report documents the successful management and complete recovery of a calf presenting with obstructive retention of urine—marking the 37th successful tube cystotomy procedure performed by me ( Surgeon Love Son Lakhani)

Case Presentation & Surgical Intervention
The patient, a young calf suffering from severe urinary retention due to urethral obstruction, underwent a tube cystotomy. This surgical procedure bypasses the blocked urethra by placing a temporary indwelling Foley catheter directly into the urinary bladder through the abdominal wall. This diverts urine externally, allowing the inflamed or blocked urethra time to rest and heal.

Post-Operative Progression & Timeline
Day 31 Post-Op (Restoration of Natural Patency): Just 31 days after the surgery, the calf successfully resumed normal, spontaneous urination through its natural urethral or***ce. This indicated that the urethral obstruction had completely resolved and normal physiological function was restored.

Day 18 Post-Op ( Suture Removal):
Two weeks following the procedure, the calf was re-evaluated. Having maintained consistent, unhindered natural urination, the surgical stitches and the indwelling Foley catheter were safely removed.Current Status.

The patient has made a full, uncomplicated clinical recovery. The calf is currently in excellent health, exhibiting normal vital signs, thriving behavior, and perfect urinary function through the natural passage. This case further validates the high success rate and reliability of tube cystotomy as a primary surgical choice for resolving obstructive urolithiasis in bovine patients.
