    PREVALENCE OF YOKE GALL IN BULLOCKS- ITS MANAGEMENT
    (KVAFSU, Bidar, 2005-06-01) MANJUNATH PATIL; B.V. SHIVAPRAKASH
    STUDY ON PREVALENCE OF YOKE GALL, ITS MEDICAL AND SURGICAL TREATMENT IN BULLOCKS Manjunath Patil August-2005 Dr. B. V. Shivaprakash Major Advisor ABSTRACT Prevalence of yoke gall was studied under three different situations i.e., among clinical cases, among animals disposed for sale and slaughter. Classification and evaluation of eight different treatments was made in 57 clinical cases of yoke gall. Prevalence of yoke gall was studied in nine different locations of Karnataka State among clinical cases presented for five retrospective years from 2000 to 2004. Out of 2,61,882 total cases, 70,896 were suffering from different surgical disorders. Out of these, 2,081 cases had yoke gall with an overall prevalence of 0.79%; and prevalence among surgical cases was 2.94%. Out of 2,225 cattle and buffaloes disposed for sale, 38 bullocks were affected with yoke gall showing the prevalence of 1.71%. Out of 1,148 animals disposed for slaughter at Bangalore slaughter house and Chitaguppa slaughter house, 33 bullocks were found affected with yoke gall showing the prevalence of 2.98%. The prevalence of acute yoke gall was maximum (40.13%) in clinical situation; subacute yoke gall was maximum (52.63%) among the animals disposed for sale; and the chronic was maximum (53.06%) among the animals disposed for slaughter. The prevalence was maximum in rainy season (46.23%) followed by winter (31.43%). The prevalence was maximum in the bullocks of 6 to 8 years of age (48.42%). The prevalence was maximum in males (88.42%). Based on clinical and hisptopathological features a standard list of classification was given to yoke gall. Haematobiochemical and histological features of each type were documented. Fifty seven bullocks were divided into eight groups for the evaluation of treatment. In group I, diclofenac sodium injection and topical application of Khand ointment (turmeric and lime juice) were given. There was no reduction in swelling of acute and subacute yoke gall during the first 15 days and only 25% reduction was seen after 30 days. In group II, diclofenac sodium injection and topical application of Khand ointment and dimethyl sulfoxide liquid were used. Initially no response and after one month only 25% reduction was seen in these bullocks. In group III, only topical application of dimethyl sulfoxide was employed. Response was negligible during initial 15 days and slight reduction (25%) was seen after 30 days in bullocks with acute and subacute yoke gall. In group IV, intravenous dimethyl sulfoxie @ 1.0 g/kg b.wt. resulted in 50% of reduction of acute yoke gall on third day, 75% reduction on seventh day, 90% reduction on 15 th day and complete reduction on 30 th day. In group V, dexamethasone injection was given directly into the swelling. The acute yoke gall showed 50% reduction in swelling on third day, 75% on seventh day and almost complete reduction on 30 th day. In group VI, herbal treatment using paste of root of Triumfetta rotundifolia and leaves of Dregia volubilis were applied. The acute yoke galls showed 25% reduction on third day, 50% reduction on seventh day and complete absorption of fluid by 30 th day. The response was partial for subacute yoke gall and nil for chronic fibrosed yoke gall in groups IV, V & VI. In group VII, surgical drainage of acute yoke galls by stab incision resulted in immediate reduction but required second incision due to reaccumulation. In group VIII, surgical excision was followed in nine bullocks with chronic yoke galls which resulted in 100% improvement. There was no change in haematological values before and after treatment. There was slight increase in SGPT level and marked increase in LDH levels before and 30 days after treatment in all the groups.

Six clinical cases of calves were subjected to the NPWT to check the outcome. The gross changes, clinical signs, haematological and biochemical parameters and the radiographic findings were recorded before the treatment and on 7th, 14th, 21st and 28th day after the treatment. A significant variation in the rectal temperature was noticed in all the cases. Among the biochemical parameters only alkaline phosphatase showed significant variation. A significant difference was observed in the synovial fluid/ joint discharge total protein, total leucocyte count, polymorphonuclear cells count and pH between 0th day and 28th day. There was a significant variation in the clinical parameters like joint diameter, ROM and lameness pattern, which showed gradual improvement after the treatment. The most sensitive antibiotic was found to be Ceftriaxone and sulbactum in majority of the cases. The radiographic evaluation revealed changes like, soft tissue swelling, severe arthritis, increased intra-articular spaces, air pockets and in chronic cases ankyloses. The application of NPWT was found to be an effective method in the treatment of joint ill, it provided better healing early recovery from the disease by reducing the swelling and oedema, continuous removal of the joint discharge and increased blood supply to the joint. The animals were able to support with the affected limbs after the treatment.

    COMPARISON OF CONVENTIONAL AND LAPAROSCOPIC METHOD OF CYSTOLITHOTOMY IN DOGS
    (KARNATAKA VETERINARY, ANIMAL AND FISHERIES SCIENCES UNIVERSITY, BIDAR, 2017-10) VIJAY KUMAR, N.; Dr. L. RANGANATH
    The study was conducted to compare and evaluate the conventional and laparoscopic method of cystolithotomy in dogs. Twelve dogs with cystolithiasis were selected for the study and divided into two groups A and B consisting of six dogs each. Group A dogs were subjected to the conventional method of cystolithotomy and Group B dogs were subjected to the laparoscopic method of cystolithotomy. Operative time required for Group B was significantly higher as compared to Group A due to lengthy and complex laparoscopic procedure. There was no major intraoperative or postoperative complication observed in both the groups, except in two dogs of Group B where, intracorporeal suturing of the urinary bladder could not be accomplished and it was repaired by conventional method. The result of the study indicated there was no significant variations between and within the groups in most of the clinical (BCS), physiological (rectal temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate), hematological (PCV, TEC, Hb, TLC and DLC) and biochemical parameters (ALT, creatinine, BUN, calcium and phosphorus); except, UMPS, cortisol and C-reactive protein, which showed significantly higher values in Group A dogs which can be attributed to surgical stress caused by lengthy incision and tissue handling. Heart rate and neutrophil count showed significant variation within the groups. Finally, on the basis of the observations and the evaluations during the present study, it could be concluded that the conventional method of cystolithotomy may be preferred over laparoscopic method of cystolithotomy under available circumstances.

    COMPARATIVE EVALUATION OF DEXMEDETOMIDINE AND LORAZEPAM SEDATION FOR KETAMINE-ISOFLURANE ANAESTHESIA IN DOGS UNDERGOING VARIOUS SURGERIES
    (KARNATAKA VETERINARY ANIMAL AND FISHERIES SCIENCE'SUNIVERSITY, BIDAR-585226, 2018-07) SACHIN, N.; B.V. SHIVAPRAKASH; S. M. USTURGE; D. DILIPKUMAR
    The study was carried out to evaluate the feasibility of dexmedetomidine and lorazepam sedation for ketamine-isoflurane anaesthesia for various surgeries in dogs. The study was carried out in 12 clinical cases of dogs presented for various surgical procedures and were randomly divided into two groups consisting of six dogs in each group. Animals of both the groups were atropinsed (0.045mg/kg, IM) before anaesthetic administration. The dogs of group I were premedicated with dexmedetomidine hydrochloride (10µg/kg, IV). The dogs of group II were premedicated with lorazepam (4mg/kg, IV). After ten minutes, the anaesthesia was induced by administering ketamine hydrochloride (6 mg/kg, IV) and maintained with isoflurane (1-2%) in both the groups. Onset of sedation, down time to sternal recumbency and induction time were narrowly quicker in dogs premedicated with dexmedetomidine than in dogs premedicated with lorazepam. However, recovery time to regain sternal position and to assume standing position were faster in dogs premedicated with lorazepam than with dexmedetomidine for ketamine-isoflurane anaesthesia. Degree of sedation, analgesia and muscle relaxation were much higher in dogs premedicated with dexmedetomidine than in dogs premedicated with lorazepam. Respiratory depression, bradycardia and decrease in mean arterial pressure were comparatively severe in dogs premedicated with dexmedetomidine than with lorazepam for ketamine-isoflurane anaesthesia. Haemoglobin, total leukocyte count and total erythrocyte count decreased non-significantly, whereas, packed cell volume decreased significantly at maximum depth of anaesthesia in both the groups. Alanine transaminase level increased significantly at 120 minutes after general anaesthesia in both the groups. No significant difference in serum creatinine and serum urea nitrogen at all intervals of study in both the groups. Serum glucose increased significantly at 30 and 120 minutes after general anaesthesia in both the groups and the increase was more severe in dogs premedicated with dexmedetomidine. However, all the haemato-biochemical changes were within physiological limits. In present study dexmedetomidine-ketamine-isoflurane combination provided satisfactory surgical plane of anaesthesia. However, lorazepam-ketamine-isoflurane combination appears to be safer in dogs with minimum cardiopulmonary changes.

    ROMIFIDINE SEDATION WITH KETAMINE OR PROPOFOL INDUCTION FOR ISOFLURANE ANAESTHESIA IN GOATS
    (KARNATAKA VETERINARY ANIMAL AND FISHERIES SCIENCE'SUNIVERSITY, BIDAR-585226, 2018-07) CHAMANVALI, B.; D. DILIPKUMAR; S. M. USTURGE; B.V. SHIVAPRAKASH
    The study was carried out to evaluate the feasibility of romifidine sedation for ketamine or propofol-isoflurane general anaesthesia for various surgeries in goats. The study was carried out in 12 clinical cases of goats presented for various surgical procedures and were randomly divided into two groups consisting of six goats in each group. The goats of both the groups were premedicated with romifidine hydrochloride (50µg/kg, IV). After ten minutes the animals of group I and II were induced with ketamine (6 mg/kg, IV) and propofol (6mg/kg IV) respectively then anaesthesia maintained with isoflurane (1-2%) in both the groups. Onset of sedation, down time to sternal recumbency were faster in both the groups. Ketamine-isoflurane was associated with better haemodynamic stability in comparison to propofol-isoflurane. However, propofol induction had advantage of excellent sedation and muscle relaxation. Haemoglobin and total erythrocyte count decreased non-significantly, whereas, packed cell volume and total leukocyte count decreased significantly at maximum depth of anaesthesia in both the groups. All the haemato-biochemical changes were within physiological limits. The preanesthetic and the general anaesthetic combinations followed in both the groups provided satisfactory surgical plane of anaesthesia and were ideal and safe to perform major surgeries in goats without any complications.
