Author(s): D Borpujari, FA Ahmed, K Sarma and D Talukdar
Abstract: An eight (8) months old mixed breed queen was presented to the Teaching Veterinary Clinical Complex, College of Veterinary Sciences and A.H., Central Agricultural University with a history of difficulty in parturition. As per the report of the owner the queen has delivered one live fetus one day ago. On clinical examination the tail of one fetus was seen hanging from the vulva of the queen. The queen was dull, depressed, severely dehydrated and exhausted due to straining for long. Then on the basis of clinical symptoms it was diagnosed as dystocia due to secondary uterine inertia. The queen was stabilised with fluid therapy and was relieved from dystocia with forced traction by enough lubrication with Carboxy Methyl Cellulose. Antibiotic and vitamin injection was prescribed as a therapeutic management and it was recovered uneventfully.
