Abstract

The present paper deals with some abdominal surgeries conducted under field conditions in domestic animals. Caesarian section was conducted in bovines, caprines, equines and canines. Congenital and acquired intestinal eviscerations were corrected in bovines, ovine and equine. Abdominal hernias were repaired in bovines and canines. Correction of atresia ani-et-recti was done in bovine calves. Rumenotomy was conducted in cases of foreign body ingestion as an exploratory procedure. Intestinal surgery was performed to relieve intestinal obstruction in bovines. Anaesthetic and surgical techniques were discussed.
