Case report on uterine prolapse in a Buffalo and its management

Abstract

Uterine prolapse is a common obstetrical problem, adversely affects productive and reproductive performance of buffalo by hampering postpartum return to estrus, conception rate and calving interval. A three years old buffalo
having history of recent parturition was suffering from prolapsed mass coming throughout the vagina. On gynae-clinical examination it was diagnosed as uterine prolapse as the mass was huge and presence of maternal caruncles on it. The prolapsed mass was replaced manually, in recumbent condition using Buhner’s suture. The buffalo was recovered uneventfully without any complication.
