Abstract

In this case report, a 1-day-old female calf brought to the Ataturk University Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Animal Hospital with rectovaginal fistula and atresia ani is presented. As a result of clinical examination, abdominal tension, tenderness, depression, stronguria, absence of stool output, meconium mixed urine droplets coming out were detected in a 1-day-old calf. In the radiographic examinations, the blunt end of the rectum was detected very close to the skin and the operation was decided. After the preoperative preparations, a circular incision was made into the skin to reveal the blunt end of the rectum. The rectal pouch was grabbed and opened. The edges of rectal mucosa were sutured with skin to maintain the patency of opening. At the same time, the vulvas were expanded with plastic surgery and the urinary tract was detected and probed. Similarly, the edges of fistula within the vagina were also refreshed and sutured by using simple interrupted suture pattern. After 7 days of post operative care calf got recovered successfully.
