Present study was conducted in 6 cows presented with deep lacerated wounds with exposed teat cistern at Department of veterinary Surgery and Radiology, Teaching veterinary clinical complex, Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Veterinary Education and Research, Pondicherry. All the cows were subjected to preoperative evaluation and the mucosal and muscular layers were sutured separately by simple continuous suture pattern using 3/0 polygalactin 910. The skin edges were apposed by applying disposable stainless steel skin staples. Postoperative evaluation of the reconstructed teat was carried out by the morphological evaluation on 7th day and 10th day.
