Uterine Prolapse in a Jersey-Red Sindhi Cross Cow

Uterine prolapse is basically the eversion of the uterus whereby it is turned inside out from its original location. Cows it mostly occurs within a few hours after calving. The condition is usually associated with hypocalcemia, which results in a lack of uterine tone and delayed cervical involution. A case of uterine prolapse in 5 years old Jersey-Red Sindhi crossbred cow was presented to Department of Veterinary Gynecology and Obstetrics, Veterinary College, and Research Institute, Namakkal. India. The uterine prolapse was replaced to the normal position under epidural anesthesia, lubricated with cetrimide cream and retention made through Buhners technique. No recurrence noticed for the next 3 days. Buhners suture removed after a week. Uterine prolapsed is an emergency situation and it has to be given professional assistance as soon as possible to enhance the prognosis. Proper reduction, reposition, and retention are crucial to prevent recurrence.

Management of estrual cervico-vaginal prolapse in a cross-bred Jersey cow: A case report

International Journal of Veterinary Sciences and Animal Husbandry

A four year old pluriparous cross-bred Jersey cow was presented to the clinic with a history of intermittent prolapse of mass from the vagina during every estrus. Based on gynaecological exanimation, the case was diagnosed as estrual cervico-vaginal prolapse. After repositioning the prolapsed mass into the pelvic cavity, modified Buhner's vulval retention sutures were applied to prevent reoccurrence. Subsequently, the animal became pregnant following artificial insemination in the next estrus.

Effective management of a complicated case of uterine prolapse with uterine rupture in an indigenous cow

International Journal of Chemical Studies, 2018

A pluriparous indigenous cow was presented with the history of normal delivery of a female calf followed by expulsion of placenta after 5 hours. The prolapsed mass was completely everted uterus and hanging down with edematous condition with rupture in its dorsal wall through which some parts of the intestine protruded out. The intestinal loops and prolapsed mass was replaced. The animal was treated with 3 rd generation antibiotics, anti-inflammatory, anti-histaminic and other drugs.

Recurrent Prepartum Cervico-Vaginal Prolapse in a Crossbred Holstein Friesian Dairy Cow

Short Communication, 2020

A Holstein Friesian (HF) crossbred dairy cow of 5-years-old and 38.5-weeks pregnant was presented to the Veterinary Hospital of College of Veterinary Science, Mekelle University with a history of repeated prolapse since last 10-days. Upon clinical examination , the case was confirmed as prepartum cervico-vaginal prolapse due to excess labor and straining to deliver the fetus. After caesarean section, the cow was restrained on sternal recumbency and the prolapsed mass was made aseptic by washing with a 2% potassium permanganate solution and was repositioned into the pelvic cavity. The cow was kept on fluid therapy (stat), anti-inflammatory and antibiotic for three successive days. A modified Buhner's technique, using infusion set tube as suture was to keep the prolapsed tissue in position to prevent the recurrence and the cow had an uneventful recovery. A successful management of recurrent prepartum cervico-vaginal prolapse using modified Buhner's suture after caesarean section in a crossbred Holstein Friesian dairy cow is discussed.

International Journal of Livestock Research, 2014

The present study envisages the simple technique of resolving the cervico-vaginal prolapse in a pregnant cow and its management. The method of suturing highlights the effectiveness in the handling and approaches which can be easily replicated in field condition without any adverse effect on the production and reproductive health of the animal.

Genital prolapse in crossbred cows: prevalence, clinical picture and management by a modifified Bühner's technique using infusion (drip) set tubing as suture material

Veterinarski Arhiv, 2012

Eighty-six cows presented for treatment of genital prolapse (uterine 44 and vaginal 42) were included in this study. Vaginal prolapse mostly occurred during advanced pregnancy and uterine prolapse following parturition. At the time of examination, most of the animals with uterine prolapse were recumbent, while those with vaginal prolapse were standing. The highest prevalence of genital prolapse was recorded in crossbred Jersey cows around the 2nd parturition during the autumn season. The number of cases with grade 1 vaginal prolapse was highest (52.38%) followed by grade 3 (33.33%) and grade 2 (14.29%) respectively. Grade 1 vaginal prolapse could be managed successfully by exogenous progesterone therapy (500 mg hydroxyprogesterone i.m. two times at weekly interval) along with hind quarter elevation in 45.45% cases (10/22); however, in the remaining 54.55% cases the prolapse was converted to grade 2. A few (27%) animals with uterine prolapse were simultaneously suffering from milk fe...
