Dystocia Complicated with Vulva Tear In a West Africa Dwarf Primiparous Doe: A case report

Ajani Jimoh Ayinla, Imaben Grace Opaluwa-kuzayed.


Abstract
ABSTRACT
Dystocia is a condition which is characterised by a difficulty in normal parturition. It is usually considered to be an emergency as the fate of both the mother and fetus is usually at risk and may lead to the eventual death of either or both. Causes are usually either maternal or fetal or of both caused. A year old primiparous West Africa Dwarf (WAD) doe weighing 12.0 kg was presented to the Large Animal Clinic of the Veterinary Teaching Hospital, University of Ilorin with the chief complaint of 6 hours long straining and intense restlessness. The doe was said to be mated by a large sahelian buck which led to conception of a large sized fetus. During examination, there was presentation of the head and extended right fore limb physically dangling while the left forelimb was flexed internally as it was not presenting, there was no suckling reflex so the fetus was confirmed dead on arrival and there was also vulval tear seen on presentation. The fetus was delivered through gentle manual traction after the posture was corrected extending the initially flexed forelimb aided with adequate lubrication and proper treatment of the vulval tear which led to the successful management of the situation.

Key words: Dystocia, vulva tear, dwarf doe
