OtherItem Open Access INDUCTION OF ESTRUS IN AN ANESTRUS CROSSBRED HEIFER USING INTRAVAGINAL PROGESTERONE DEVICE(TANUVAS, 2017-08) Ramdoss, Vignesh; Lakshmikantan, U.; Murugan, M.; TANUVASAnestrum is one of the major causes of infertility in bovines. A four year old Holstein Friesian crossbred heifer was presented to the Teaching Veterinary Clinical Complex, Veterinary College and Research Institute, Tirunelveli with a history of not showing estrus signs for the past seven months. Rectal examination revealed normal uterus with inactive ovaries was palpable. Transrectal ultrasonography of the right ovary revealed a follicle measured about 8.5 mm in diameter, on the contra lateral ovary no follicle could be detected and corpus luteum could not be detected on both ovaries.Nine days later animal was re-examined and found to have a follicle on the right ovary measured 8.6 mm in diameter. Hence the condition was diagnosed as Anestrus and treated with Controlled Internal Drug Releasing Device (Progesterone device), which was inserted in the vagina and administered estradiol benzoate 2 mg total dose intramuscularly. Eight days later CIDR was removed and PGF20t was administered intramuscularly. Artificial insemination was carried out 48 and 72 hours after CIDR removal. It could be concluded as for Anestrus where a single deviated dominant follicle persists for longer duration Progesterone with estradiol therapy may be used to induce estrus.OtherItem Open Access INDUCTION OF ESTRUS IN AN ANESTRUS CROSSBRED HEIFER USING INTRAVAGINAL PROGESTERONE DEVICE(TANUVAS, 2017-08) Ramdoss, Vignesh; Lakshmikantan, U.; Murugan, M.; TANUVASAnestrum is one of the major causes of infertility in bovines.

A five months pregnant, three years old heifer was presented to Teaching Veterinary Clinical Complex, Veterinary College and Research Institute, Tirunelveli with the history of anorexia and constipation with sudden enlargement of abdomen within 6 days. On clinical examination the animal was dull and depressed with distended abdomen and has cautious gait, temperature: 38.6%. Pervaginal examination revealed closed cervix. Per rectal examination revealed distended and excessive fluid accumulation in the uterus, located in the abdominal cavity and fetus and placentomes could not be palpated. Abdominal ultrasonography revealed a viable fetus and excessive fluid accumulation in the uterus.

Examination of perineum revealed two tears on the left lateral wall of the vagina. Absorbable suture material, poly glycolic acid (PGA) was used to appose the vaginal tears. Vulval labium was applied with simple interrupted suture using silk. Perineal repair was helpful in reconstructing the vagina and vulva. In conclusion, proper surgical apposition would restore the normal conformation of reproductive passage in cows affected with perineal laceration and Buhner’s suture should essentially be removed to avoid extensive damage to the perineum at the time of second stage parturition.ArticleItem Open Access Therapeutic Management of Perineal Transmissible Venereal Tumor Associated with Sinus in a Chippiparai Dog(2016-12) Murugan, M.; Sathiamoorthy, T.a; Ganesan, A.; Lakshmikantan, U.; TANUVASA five year old intact chippiparai female dog weighing 17.4 Kg presented with history of non healing wound at perineal region since two months and the case was treated by local Veterinarian.
