Surgical management of linear foreign body in a Labrador retriever dog

V Mahesh, G Kamalakar, C Ansar Kamran and BN Nagaraja

A Male Labrador Retriever dog was presented to the Veterinary College Hospital with a history of anorexia, dyschezia, vomition and gradual debility. It was diagnosed as intestinal obstruction due to lineal foreign body based on signs, palpation and contrast radiographic examination. A mid ventral laparo-enterotomy-gastrotomy was performed and retrieved a cloth piece. Timely surgical intervention and good postoperative therapy resulted in uneventful recovery.
