Journal Title: Journal of Applied Veterinary Sciences - Year 2021, Vol 6, Issue 4

Abstract

The objective of the present study was to describe retrospective data, including causes and whether medical and surgical management is suitable for feline dystocia. Data were analysed and described according to original causes and treatment protocols were done. Data of this study revealed that the maternal causes with different types of dystocia were the major percentage. The highest percentage was recorded in 2020 which was 80.00%, while the lowest rate was in 2018 which was 66.00%. The highest foetal causes percentages were in 2018 which was 33.00%, while the lowest rate was in 2020 which was 20.00%. Data also revealed the percentage of treatment types for dystocia in cats in the period between 2018-2021 which were 17.07 % of hormonal treatment and 82.93% of Caseran Section operation. Results of the present study conclude that the best method for treating dystocia in cats was the cesarean section. The author advised using estrogen and Oxytocin hormones with Ca++ to treat the non-obestracting dystocia or hormonal treatment instead of using oxytocin and Ca++ alone.
