Abstract
ABSTARCT:
The present work entitled Studies on affections of tail and their management in buffaloes was taken up on the clinical cases presented for the treatment inary hospital around Gannavarm . The incidence of Necrosis and gangrene of the tail was more followed by fractures, trauma , dislocation , dermatitis , varicosity and tumor cases.They were treated on conservative therapy and amputation procedures. Tail amputation with V Incision with epidural block or ring block ( group I and II) Tail amputation with U Incision with epidural block or ring block. (group II and IV ) was conducted on required animals. Among the affections of tail the buffaloes suffering with avulsion , Dislocation and Necrosis and gangrene showed severe pain whereas fractures, dermatitis and varicosity cases were graded as moderate. The pain was graded as low in tumor case . Amputation of tail throughV Incision given satisfactory exposure when compared to U incision. The Physiological and haematological parameters following amputation were with in the physiological limits. A non Significant increase in plasma cortisol and C reactive Protein were noticed in early postoperative period in all the groups .Skin sutures were completely healed in between 11-14 days in all the animals. The dorso ventral and lateral views selected for radiography of amputated tail found to be appropriate . he skin obtained from the majority of the tail affections showed normal histological structures while the necrosis and gangrene cases showed ischemic necrosis .The bone section revealing normal lamellar bone with haversian system indicating the non involvement of the bone in tail affections . Based on the study it was concluded that affections of the tail should be addressed promptly with appropriate treatment procedures to minimize the production losses as well as pain relief to the animal.
