Abstract
The larval stage of the Taenia multiceps; Coenurus cerebralis- causes ‘Coenurosis’ or ‘Gid’, a parasitic disease of the central nervous system. Surgical intervention may cure the disease, otherwise it becomes fatal. The objective of this present study is to illustrate a surgical method for the successful removal of cysts from the brain of a Jamunapari goat came to the Upazila Veterinary Hospital, Ghatail, Tangail, Bangladesh. The most important clinical signs include circling movement, pressing the head against obstacles, keeping the head down to the affected side. The disease was diagnosed as ‘Coenurosis’ and decided to perform a surgery. The incision was made at the operative site and cysts were removed. The surgery of ‘Coenurosis’ is one of the common surgeries especially at field condition. The surgical method described here for a goat may be useful for the veterinarian for the appropriate management of such disease in the field condition.
