Clinical Management of Fetal Mummification in a Primiparous Crossbred Cow by Induction of Parturition and Episiotomy Operation

Sumit Singhal, D K Kinkar, Shyama Pandey, Pratyush Kumar And Abhishek Kumar.


Abstract
A two and a half years old primiparous non-descript crossbred cow was presented with a history of prolonged gestation and failure to deliver. Gyaneco-clinical examination and ultrasonography confirmed the presence of a mummified fetus. The cow successfully delivered mummified fetus - by induction of parturition using prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) and valethamate bromide followed by episiotomy. Supportive therapy, including antibiotics, multivitamins and fluid therapy ensured uneventful recovery.

Key words: Episiotomy, Fetal mummification, Heifer cow, PGF2α, Valethamate bromide
