  • Utilizes illustrations and photographs to complement textual information.
  • Each chapter ends with "observations" and "exercises" for self-assessment.

Content Highlights

  • Discusses new and traditional treatment concepts, emphasizing the evolution of veterinary practices.
  • Introduces practical techniques for pregnancy diagnosis such as:
    • Recto-abdominal palpation for small ruminants.
    • Milk ejection test for early pregnancy diagnosis in cattle, noted for their high accuracy (90-100%).

Practical Application

  • Emphasizes techniques applicable in Indian field conditions, avoiding reliance on costly or complex equipment.
  • Highlights clinical cases related to cattle and buffalo to provide relevant practical examples.
  • Encourages the adoption of modern treatment methods while addressing the limitations of outdated practices.

Conclusion

  • Aims to provide a comprehensive and accessible resource for veterinary students and practitioners.
  • Strives to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and field application in veterinary gynaecology and obstetrics.

Comparative Anatomy of Reproductive Tracts

  • Ovaries exhibit distinct shapes across species:
    • Cow, she buffalo, ewe, doe: Almond-shaped
    • Mare: Bean or kidney-shaped
    • Sow: Resembles a cluster of grapes (berry-shaped)
  • Functions of the ovaries include:
    • Oogenesis (exocrine function)
    • Secretion of hormones such as oestrogen, progesterone, oxytocin, and relaxin (endocrine function)

Uterine Tubes

  • Also known as oviducts or fallopian tubes, these paired structures connect ovaries to the uterus.
  • Size:
    • Length: 20-30 cm
    • Diameter: 2-3 mm
  • Divided into three parts:
    • Infundibulum: Funnel-shaped, the ovarian end
    • Ampulla: Middle section
    • Isthmus: Constricted section near the uterus
  • Functions:
    • Collection of ova (infundibulum)
    • Transport of ova
    • Fertilization occurs at the ampullary-isthmic junction

Uterus

  • A thick, hollow muscular organ with two horns, a short body, and cervix.
  • Located in the pelvic cavity in non-pregnant females.
  • Related to the rectum above and urinary bladder below, attached by the broad ligament (mesometrium).

Behavioural Signs of Oestrus

  • Mare:
    • Vicious temperament and frequent urination
    • Brownish-yellow vaginal discharge
    • Tail head raised and exposed clitoris through "winking"
    • Congested vulvar mucous membrane changes color to orange or scarlet
    • Turns back to stallion and stands with tail raised
  • Ewe and Doe:
    • Signs of restlessness and anorexia
    • Occasional homosexual behavior in does
    • Frequent bleating indicative of heat in does
    • Drop in milk yield and vulvar swelling
    • Tail shaking signals heat in does

Pregnancy Diagnosis in Bovine

  • Objectives:

    • Detect non-pregnant females to minimize infertility-related losses.
    • Differentiate between pregnancy and abnormal uterine conditions.
  • External Examination:

    • Visual signs: cessation of oestrous cycle, sluggish behavior, weight gain
    • Milk yield drops post-5 months of pregnancy, abdominal enlargement, mammary gland growth begins around 5 months.
  • Per-Rectal Examination:

    • First month: Uterine horns symmetrical, closed cervix, ovulation detected by corpus luteum.
    • Second month: Uterus palpable, larger size noticeable.
    • Third month: Uterus hangs and is palpable from three sides, with thinning walls.
    • Fourth month: Abdominal uterus, presence of cotyledons, fluctuating consistency is detectable.
