Disease Uterine prolapse
Disease Description Prolapse of the uterus is a common complication of the third stage of labour in the cow. In the ruminant species the prolapse is generally a complete inversion of the gravid cornu, while in the sow and the bitch inversion is generally partial and comprises one horn only. The occurrence seems to be affected by seasonal as well as regional factors, the condition being commoner in some years and in some localities. Multigravida (of the dairy breeds) are more often involved than are heifers. In the majority of instances the prolapse occurs within a few hours of an otherwise normal second-stage labour, although in some it may be delayed several days. In the latter group the condition is generally associated with a grossly protracted and assisted labour. Rarely, where delivery is achieved by heavy traction, the uterus prolapses immediately after the calf is withdrawn.
Management Practices Administration of epidural anasthesia, remove gross debris from the prolapsed organ by washing with saline or a very mild antiseptic
