Abstract
Uterine torsion is the most complicated cause of maternal dystocia recorded in bovine, especially in buffaloes. It’s usually followed by incomplete cervical dilatation after successful detorsion, which interfere with vaginal fetal delivery, so it should be handled as quickly as possible.
Our study was planned to investigate the effect of degree and duration of uterine torsion, beside stage of gestation at demonstration of the uterine torsion cases on degrees of its response to detorsion procedure and complete cervical dilatation after successful detorsion. Efficiency of using the estimated serum level of CPK AST, bLac and ultrasound as assisted diagnostic tools and good prognostic indicators in uterine torsion cases. In addition, the relationship between the histopathopathological, histochemical and immuno histochemical findings in uterine and cervical tissues following uterine torsion and incomplete cervical dilatation after successful detorsion .
Total number of 80 of Egyptian buffaloes of our study were assigned into 75 uterine torsion affected cases with different ages, parities and stages of pregnancy and 5 normally calved cases, that was taken as control group.
