Abstract
ABSTRACT : The present study “laparoscopy in buffaloe calves” was under taken to study the topography of the abdominal and pelvic cavity through different approaches and to conduct laparoscopic biopsy of the spleen and liver.Twelve male buffaloe calves aged about one and a half to two years were randomly divided in to three groups to perform Right, left and midventral laparoscopy . The laparoscopy equipment and accessories used in this study were effectively served the purpose. Atmospheric air was pumped in to abdomen through veress needle to create pnuemo- peritoneum with 8-10mm of Hg pressure following preoperative fasting of the animals for 24-48 hrs .The middle of the flanks and lateral to umbilicus was chosen as portals for laparoscopy. Right and left side approaches through paralumbar fossa in standing position and mid ventral site in dorsal recumbency are found to be suitable for the procedure. Right, left flank and midventral laparoscopy provided excellent viewing of the intraabdominal and pelvic organs. Post operatively all the animals recovered well without any sepsis and wound complications .Laparoscopy-guided biopsy of liver and spleen yielded normal cellular architecture with minimum artifacts in histological studies.The complications following laparoscopy include laceration of the rumen wall and omental sling at the site of trocarization and signs of subcutaneous emphysema.
