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.
