University of Basra performs surgery on a type of ruminant
The Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Basra, in cooperation with the veterinary hospital, performed a qualitative surgery on a ruminant.
The operation was performed on a sheep that was suffering from uterine prolapse by the veterinarians of the surgery and obstetrics branch within the clinical lesson for the final stage students, and antibiotics were given to prevent any other complications.
It is noteworthy that this condition is common in ruminants and occurs after birth and has several reasons, including dystocia, large fetal size or twin pregnancies, and can occur when the uterine ligaments loosen and sometimes as a result of the absence of the feed provided to the animal from some important elements such as calcium and magnesium.
