This short communication of a case report of dystocia in a pluriparous Nagaland mithun strain was due to fetal maldisposition and malpresentation. Severe left lateral deviation of head and neck and dorsopubic-anterior presentation of the fetus caused the maldisposition in Nagaland mithun strain. It was successfully removed with caesarean section and the animal recovered uneventfully.
Multi-organ anomalies in skeletal, urogenital, and digestive system were observed in a Large Black male piglet born alive along with a healthy litter at ICAR Research Complex for NEH Region, Medziphema. The major developmental defects in the piglet were atresia ani, cryptorchidism and spina bifida along with ankylosis of posterior limbs. Etiology of this case was not confirmed as it was an incidental finding in our farm and rare in nature. However, the effects of certain teratogens could be the predisposing factor for the developmental defects in the preset case.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
