Abstract
The present case reports the successful management of dystocia in
nondescript ewe due to conjoined twin monster foetus. A full term pregnant
ewe in its second parity was brought to the veterinary dispensary
Ayyanaroothu, Tutucorin with a history of abdominal straining and not able
to deliver the young one. Per vaginal examination revealed presence of a
foetus in anterior presentation with left shoulder flexion. Shoulder flexion
was corrected and a dead monocephalic conjoined twin foetus was relieved
by gentle traction. The ewe was treated with broad spectrum antibiotic, anti
inflammatory and ecbolic drugs. The ewe recovered uneventfully.
