Abstract

6 - Male breeding bulls were presented to VCC of CVAS Bikaner with the history of preputial prolapse and its hardening and paraphemosis. All the six breeding bulls under study had similar anatomical injury and had IV degree prolapse. Initially medicinal treatment was carried out in all bulls to reduce the swelling and infection. In all the animals antibiotic injection Streptopenicillin 5.0 g IM was given for 5 days and; injection Meloxicam @ 0.2 mg/kg IM for 3 days and antiseptic dressing of the prepuce was done with Povidone iodine solution for 5 days to reduce the infection and thereafter surgery was performed. Preputial prolapse was repaired successfully via circumcision technique. After the surgery all bulls were given 60 days of sexual rest. No post-operative complications and recurrence were recorded.
