Objective: Ceftiofur, a third-generation cephalosporin, is used as a usual antimicrobial drug in veterinary medicine. Positive efficiency of ceftiofur for treatment of retained fetal membrane (RFM) and acute puerperal metritis has been previously reported. Thus, this study was conducted to evaluate the efficiency of ceftiofur hydrochloride (CH) in prevention of uterine postpart...

Management of calves and heifers directly influence the future productivity dairy animals. However, pre-production stage is often neglected by farmers, as young cows do not yet produce milk and, therefore, revenue, while representing an important part total cost property. This study aimed to identify determine economic value factors influencing production in first lactation a herd. was case car...

The diversity of placental structures in Eutherian mammals is such that drawing generalizations from the definitive forms is problematic. There are always areas of reduced interhaemal distance whether the placenta is epitheliochorial, synepitheliochorial, endotheliochorial or haemochorial. However, the thinning may be achieved by different means. The presence of a haemophagous area as an iron t...

Among the diverse factors, bacterial infections in reproductive tract potentially cause of repeat breeding dairy cows. The present research was conducted to appraise uterine organism healthy fertile cows (HFC) and breeder (RBC) establish a relationship with previous disease or conditions. A total 43 samples were collected from 10 33 RB for bacteriological study. RBC, 39.4% harbored isolates E. ...

A velamentous umbilical cord is characterized by membranous umbilical vessels at the placental insertion site that are prone to compression and rupture, especially when they are located in the membranes covering the cervical os (vasa praevia). The velamentous insertion of the umbilical cord, with a reported incidence of 1% in singleton pregnancies and 15% in monochorionic twin gestations, has b...

placenta increta, a rare complication of pregnancy, is associated with significant postpartum hemorrhage often requiring emergency hysterectomy. we report a case of conservative management, with a combination of parenteral methotrexate, serial ultrasound and β-hcg assessment. serum β-hcg levels were undetectable after 8 weeks of therapy. a scan at 6 months showed complete involution of the uter...

the objectives of this study were to 1) describe the risk factors, incidence, production and reproduction consequences of retained placenta in dairy cows, and 2) estimate the financial losses associated with retained placenta. calving records from march 2008 to december 2013 comprising 59,341 calving were included in the data set. the effects of risk factors on retained placenta incidence were ...
