Abstract

Harvesting a live calf depends upon the early intervention when getting call from owners or farm managers. Obstetrics skills are required to manage the dystocia either maternal or fetal form of dystocia. Diagnostic evaluation and treatment depends upon the condition presented to the obstetrician. Most probably obstetrician follows mutation, forced extraction, fetotomy and caesarean section. Most of the cases require mutation operation, the valid mutation operation followed by judicious traction culminate harvesting of live calf in early presented cases. The most common tools followed by the veterinarians are epidural analgesia and through lubrication of the birth canal, that may surely end in relieving of calf or fetus. The present review describes about different obstetrical operation and epidural analgesia in domestic animals.

 

Keywords: Epidural, mutation, forced extraction, fetotomy, caesarean section
