Postpartum uterine prolapse in a buffalo reared in Khunti system of foothills of Himalaya

SI Chowdhury, K Ahmed, N Mahanta and D Borpujari

A three (3) years old buffalo heifer was reported to the Department of Animal Reproduction, Gynaecology & Obstetrics with the history of delivering healthy female calf, following which a red mass of tissues protruded out of the vulva. On clinical examination the uterus was found prolapsed and the buffalo was in lateral recumbency with signs of frequent straining. After proper cleaning and disinfection of the prolapsed mass it was replaced manually under epidural anaesthesia (2% Lignocaine hydrochloride, Regain laboratories) and then rope truss technique was used to close the vulvar lips. The buffalo was infused with 450 ml calcium boro gluconate injection (Calborol, Novartis) intravenously, DNS 5 bottles (500 ml each), 15 ml Pheniramine maleate (Avilin, MSD) injection, 12 ml Tolfenamic acid (Maxxtol, Intas pharmaceuticals) injection and 1g Ceftiofur sodium (Tefrocef, MSD) injection intramuscularly (for 5 occassions). The buffalo came to heat within four months of treatment and was conceived.
