Evaluation of Sheep and Goat Dystocia Cases Submitted to Our Clinic: Etiology, Clinical Approach and Results
Abstract
In this study, etiology, causes, treatment and results of treatment of
sheep and goat dystocias seen in and around Şanlıurfa between 2003 and 2010
were evaluated. The study material consisted of 87 cases of which 57 were goats
and 30 sheep brought to our clinic with dystocia complaints. All cases were
divided into two groups: maternal (n=39, 44.83%) and fetal (n=48, 55.17%).
Prolapsus vagina, inadequate cervical dilatation (ringwomb) and uterine inertia
were observed in maternal dystocia cases while multiple pregnancy and fetal
disturbances were detected in fetal dystocia cases. Cesarean operation
conducted in 43 cases, extraction force in 40 cases and laparotomy in one case
were performed in the treatment. As a result of caesarean operation were
obtained 53 live, 27 dead fetus. With the extraction force, 25 live and 27 dead
fetus were removed.
