Abstract

Nine years old crossbred cow was presented to the TVCC, CVAS, Bikaner with dystocia of about 9 hours duration. Intestine parts and abdominal visera of the fetus were protruded from the vulva of the cow. Vaginal examination confirmed deformed fetus (schistosomus reflexus) in the pelvic cavity. The dystocia was relieved through vaginal passage by mutation and forced traction.
