Abstract
Six years old Jersey cross bred cow was presented
with the history of colic signs followed by anorexia
and cessation of defecation. Rectal examination
revealed empty rectum with distended intestinal
loops and a palpable mass in the right ventral
abdomen. Right flank laprotomy was performed
under general anaesthesia with dexmedetomidine
premedication at the dose rate of 1μg per
kg body weight followed by double drip induction
and isoflurane maintenance anaesthesia. Enterectomy
and enteroanastamosis was performed
as per standard surgical procedure. Laprotomy
wound closed routinely and the animal made an
uneventful recovery.
