Abstract

A 30-day-old Simental male calf brought with gait disorder and diagnosed with polydactyly as a result of clinical and radiographic examinations formed the study material. The over-formed metacarpal bone and nails were removed with operative intervention. No complications were encountered in the clinical examinations and radiographs taken on the 1st, 10th and 365th days. Thus, in such cases where the general condition of the patient is not bad, it was concluded that operative intervention is indicated to increase the quality of life of the patient and to prevent economic losses.

Özet

Çalışma materyalini yürüyüş bozukluğu ile getirilen, yapılan klinik ve radyografik muayeneler sonucu polidaktili tanısı konulan 30 günlük Simental ırkı erkek buzağı oluşturdu. Operatif girişim ile fazladan şekillenen metacarpal kemik ve tırnaklar uzaklaştırıldı. 1., 10. ve 365. günlerde alınan radyografiler ve yapılan klinik muayenelerde herhangi bir komplikasyon ile karşılaşılmadı. Böylece hastanın genel tablosunun kötü olmadığı bu tür olgularda, hastanın yaşam kalitesini arttırmak ve ekonomik kayıpları önlemek için operatif girişimin endike olduğu kanısına varıldı.
