Abstract
A post-partum uterine prolapse in a 2 years old West African Dwarf (WAD) goat was presented.This paper reports a clinical management of the case. The everted uterus was carefully assessed and gross debris removed by washing with soap and water and disinfected withdilute chlorhexidine solution. Epidural anaesthesia was achieved using 2 ml of 2% lidocaine solution administered at the sacro-coccygeal joint. The prolapsed uterus was replaced and Quill suture was placed on the vulva to prevent re-prolapse. Oxytocin, dexamethasone, broad-spectrum antibiotics (penicillin and streptomycin) and Darrow’s solution were administered. The animal was hospitalized for closed monitoring.
