Abstract
The paper reports teat fistula and its surgical repair in four goats. Four goats with teat fistula following
full thickness lacerated teat wound were presented to the surgery unit of VCC, VCRI, Tirunelveli and
were operated under 2% lignocaine anaesthesia by ring block. Suturing of the fistula was done in three
layers after debridement. The mucosa was sutured alone in one layer, whereas muscularis and connective
tissues were sutured in the second layer by simple continuous pattern with polyglycolic acid 3-0. The
skin wound was sutured by simple interrupted pattern using polypropylene 2-0. All the cases recovered
successfully.
