Abstract

An eight years old multiparous zebu dairy cow was presented to the Veterinary Hospital of College of Veterinary Science, Mekelle University with a history of repeated prolapse since last 15 days. Upon clinical examination, the case was confirmed as chronic post-partum cervico-vaginal prolapse due to feed deficiency and poor management practice. After proper restraining with caudal epidural anesthesia, the dead and necrotized debris were removed, and the prolapsed mass was prepared aseptic by washing with a 2% potassium permanganate solution and was repositioned into the pelvic cavity. The cow was kept on fluid therapy (stat), anti-inflammatory and antibiotic for five successive days. A modified Buhner’s technique using local thread (Jimat) as suture was to keep the prolapsed tissue in position to prevent the recurrence and the cow had an uneventful recovery A successful management of chronic cervico-vaginal prolapse using modified Buhner’s suture after caesarean section in a zebu local breed cow is discussed.
