Study was conducted on 149 case of cross breed bovine dystocia referred to Department of Theriogenology, College of Veterinary Medicine and Al-Wihda Cattle station, Baghdad, Iraq. Results showed that 87.5% of bovine dystocia were successfully relieved by cesarean section (C.S), 85.5% success was achieved by correction an traction, 71.4% by fetotomy and 50% by hormonal treatment. Most of the cases subjected to C.S, were heifers. Details concerning number of cases subjected to C.S, indications, positive response, state of pregnancy, number of claves recovered, number of male/female and survival rate of claves were listed in two enclosed tables. From results we may conclude that C.S was the best indicative treatment of dystocia, particularly when all the trails and efforts of treatments failed, inspite of the reasonable results obtained from various treatments mentioned in other cases
Eighteen (18) anestrous bitches aged 3-6 years were used in this study. They were diagnosed clinically by external and vaginal examination and the bitches were divided randomly into three equal groups (6 bitches). The 1st group were treated I/M with 20 IU eCG / bitch for 6 days with single injection and 150 IU of hCG hormone /Bitch on day 7 . The 2nd group were treated I/M with 30 IU eCG / bitch for 6 days with single injection and 150 IU of hCG hormone /bitch on day 7, and the 3rd group were treated I/M with 40 IU eCG / bitch for 6 days with single injection and 150 IU of hCG hormone /bitch on day 7. Results showed that the number responded (show proestrus bleeding) were 83.3%, 100% and 83, 3% for the 1st,2nd and 3rd group respectively. The mean duration response from the beginning of treatment to onset of proestrus bleeding were 15.23 ± 2.36, 14.83± 2.43 and 14.16 ±2.58 day respectively .1st and 3rd group recorded significantly P<0.01 higher in response to treatment 1st group recorded significantly higher (P<0.01) compared with 2nd and 3rd group in duration of response. The conception rate was 80% (4/5), 83.3%(5/6) and 60%(3/5) in 1st, 2nd and 3rd group respectively were the 1st and 2nd group recorded higher significant compared with 3rd group. The dystocia parturition was appeared 8.4 % (1/12) from total animals, while the percentage of live newborn (whelps) was 29 (76.3%) and dead 9 (23.7%). In conclusion that the using gonadotrophic hormones (eCG and hCG) have an positive effect of induction the estrus on anestrous bitches.
The present study was performed on 30 lactating Iraqi buffaloes suffered from ovarian inactivity diagnosed by rectal palpation during 60-90 days postpartum, aged between 3-6 years at Al-Thahab Al-Abiad village / Abu-Graib / Baghdad province during the period from February- June 2020 . The animals divided into three equal groups (10 buffaloes for each one). 1st group treated with melatonin implants (90mg/animals/SC) for 30 days but 2nd group treated with melatonin implants conjugated with CIDR (1.38 gm) in day 20 for 10 days, 3rd group without treatment (control group). The results in this study were recorded animal response 90%, 100% and 50% in 1st ,2nd and 3rd groups respectively with superior significantly (P<0.01) for treated groups compared with control group and 8.26±1.33, 7.15±0.97 and 160.5±14.31 days which represented the duration of response in 1st ,2nd and 3rd groups respectively with significantly differences (P<0.01) related with control, but the number of services per conception recorded insignificantly in all groups, while the pregnancy rate revealed significant differences (P<0.01) in treated group compared with control group. Finally the days open recorded 153.6±6.72, 142.8±7.45 and 217.3±19.56 in 1st, 2nd and 3rd groups respectively with highly significantly (P<0.01) in treated group compared with control group. In conclusion in present study, the role of melatonin in improvement of reproductive performance in anestrus lactating Iraqi buffaloes suffered from ovarian inactivity was safe and effective
Iraqi goats (27) were used in this study .They were diagnosed clinically as cases of postpartum open pyometra (external &vaginal examination ) .This study was performed in vet med /Baghdad university and two regions from Baghdad province ,their age 2-5years from 2008-2011. They were divided randomly into three groups (9goats of each group) .The 1st group treated with 250 μg of estrumate I/M injected and 2gm (10ml) oxytetracycline 20% intrauterine (I.U).The 2nd group treated with estrumate in same dose and 1tube of Metricure I.U and the 3rd group treated with estrumate and 25ml of0.5% loguls iodine . Results showed that the number of goats responded were 77.7%, 66.6%and 88.8% in the 1st ,2nd and 3rd group respectively . The mean of the days open were 43.12±9.16,148.31±8.24 and 136.42±8.51 in the 1st ,2nd and 3rd group ,1st and 2nd group were significant P<0.01 with 3rd group (decreases) .The number of newly born kids were 32 kids (17male ,15female ). The alive were 27(84.3%) and dead 5(5.7%) .The retention of fetal membrane recorded 4/21 (19.04). In conclusion that the PGF2α (estrumate) has an effect role in the treatment of pyometra in goats and its effect increasing when combined with loguls iodine or oxytetracycline.
This study was performed on 45 lactating Holstein -Friesian cows suffered from inactive ovaries for three months post partum and diagnosed clinically by rectal palpation in the form of the college of Agriculture / University of Baghdad , their ages 3-5 years during the period from 2010-2012. These cows were divided randomly into 4 groups, 1 st group (12 cows) were injected with 0.021mg (5 ml) Receptal I/M, 2 nd group (12 cows) were given 500 µg (5ml) Cystorelyin I/M, 3 rd group (12 cows) injected with 0.5 mg (5 ml) Fertagil I/M in one dose and 4 th group (9 cows) without treatment (control group). The response rate was 91.8%, 83.3%, 91.6% and 66.6% for the four groups respectively. While the duration of response (from treatment to oestrus appearance) was 7.43±1.56, 10.66±2.37, 8.44±2.41 and 67.63±9.87 in the 1 st ,2 nd ,3 rd and 4 th groups respectively, but the pregnancy rate recorded 90.9%, 80%, 81.8% and 83.3%. The statistical analysis showed that the 1 st and 3 rd group was recorded significant differences higher (p<0.01) than other groups (2 nd and 4 th ) related with responsive animal and the duration of response also but the pregnancy rate recorded higher significance (p<0.01) compared with 2 nd , 3rd and 4 th groups. The number of services /conception was more than 1.5-2.5 for all groups & not significant, the days open recorded higher significant (p<0.01) in 1 st , 2 nd and 3 rd compared with 4 th group (control group).
