defects in a Jenny: A case report

Dystocia in Jenny is a very rare and occur occasionally, about 1 to 4 % of foaling. A present case of fetal dystocia in seven year old jenny has been reported due to dorso-pubic position and malpostures (includes left shoulder flexion and flexed neck). Fetus was corrected in normal position and posture through application of mutational operation and removeed dead male fetus through vagina after applying the proper traction. Then, she was treated with fluid therapy, antibiotic, analgesic, tetanus toxoid, nutrients etc. and discharged from the veterinary dispensary with advising the owner for post-operative care and management for further few days.


Treatment and Discussion
Jenny is very similar in many reproductive aspects to the horse mare [1].The length of pregnancy Jenny was restrained in right lateral recumbency period is 365 to 376 days but extreme variations range and using epidural anesthesia to minimize the from 340 to 395 days and parturition is rapid and straining.Postural defect of shoulder flexion was violent feature.Donkey dystocia or obstetric cases corrected by repulsion.For that, repulsion was have been reported, but their true incidence & nature is performed at the shoulder joint and head of fetus to still unknown and it was only occurring in 1-4% of all have an access to the hoof of the left forelimb lying beneath the body.The left leg was pulled up and foaling [2].Dystocia can be caused by either maternal brought into carpal flexion posture.The rope was or fetal problems.The majority of cases are reported by applied at left fetlock joint to straighten the limb in the fetal problems, mainly malpresentation, abnormal vagina.The position of fetus was corrected by rotation position or posture of the fetus.The present case is a o (180 ) from dorso-pubic to dorso-sacral.The head was documentary record of abnormal position (dorsoflexed between the legs.Blunt eye hook was fixed on pubic) and posture (shoulder flexion) of fetus in Jenny right orbit to apply the traction.A dead male fetus and it's successful management to relieve dystocia wrapped in placenta (Fig. 1B) was delivered by pervaginally.

Case history and observation
rope.In equine family, dystocia is most often caused by A seven years old jenny in her second parity with an abnormal presentation, position and posture of complete gestation period presented to Veterinary fetus.However, an increased rate of dystocia is Dispensary, Dhanpur, Dist: Dahod, evincing the signs commonly feared when Jennies are bred to stallions. of parturition since last 24 hrs and water bags which Dystocia risks are increased in miniature donkeys had ruptured before few hours.
because of the domed large forehead of some foals and Jenny was dull and depressed with severe and following abortion due to malformation.In cattle, frequent straining attempts to deliver the fetus in males are more frequently associated with dystocias standing position.The placenta and extremity of one than female fetuses and male carries one day longer leg was found at vulvar orifice (Fig. 1A).Rectal than female one [3].Dystocia due to postural defects o temperature was normal (101.4F).During per-vaginal but with normal position of the fetus in mare have been examination, cervix was fully dilated and relaxed.A reported [4,5] which involved a male and a female dead dead fetus palpated had anterior longitudinal fetus, respectively and with right forelimb shoulder presentation, dorso-pubic position with flexed left flexion [6].Whereas, dystocia in donkey due to forelimb at shoulder joint lying beneath the body of the malformation like schistosomus reflexus and fetal fetus.Forehead of fetus was palpable at pelvic brim ankylosis have also been reported [7].with flexed neck.
