Abstract

A pluriparous Malnad Gidda cow was diagnosed to be suffering from dystocia due to carpal flexion, which was informed belatedly. An emphysematous calf was retrieved by an emergency laparo-hysterotomy through left ventro-lateral oblique abdominal incision. With good post operative care and management, the cow recovered uneventfully.
