abstract
A 15 months old male Alaskan husky weighing 28 kg was presented to the hospital with a history of acute onset of frequent emesis and not passing stools which had persisted for 5 days, on physical examination animal was in dull mentation having lethargy and generalised malaise. Clinical examination revealed that prolonged capillary refill time and skin tenting time. Haemato-biochemical profile revealed mild granulocytosis and increased packed cell volume. Plain abdominal radiography revealed two large radiopaque foreign bodies in the stomach and proximal portion of intestinal loops. Immediately we performed exploratory laparotomy followed by gastrotomy, enterotomy and retrieved two large sized thick rubber objects which obstructed the stomach and a portion of duodenal lumen completely. The animal have shown an uneventful recovery after 1 week of proper postoperative care, fluid and antibiotic therapy.
