Surgical management of teat avulsion in a goat using disposable skin staples

Reanne Marysa Carvalho, Arul Jothi N and Balagopalan TP

A four-year-old non-descript goat, was presented with a history of multiple dog bitten wounds. Clinical examination revealed an avulsion wound of the left teat at its base with an exposed teat canal and gland cistern. Under sedation with Injection Xylazine @ 0.1mg/kg B.W. administered intravenously, the muscular part of the teat was sutured. Skin was closed with stainless steel disposable surgical staples. On day 11, alternate staples were removed and leftover staples were removed on the 15th post-operative day.
