Managing fetal mummification in cows

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

Fetal mummification is a disorder during gestation which happened when fetal death happened in third to eighth month of gestation. This report describes diagnosis and management of several fetal mummification cases in cows in several regions; Mathura, Shimla, Bangladesh, Turkey, Uttarakhand, and Tirupati. Mummification diagnosis is formed by anamnesis, clinical findings, physical examination, rectal palpation, and vaginal palpation. Fetal mummification management was done by analog PGF2α administration and surgical procedures such as episiotomy and Caesarean surgery. Antibiotic was administered in the case of uterine infection.
