Abstract:
One week old male Deoni calf weighing 15–20 kg was presented to the Department of Veterinary Surgery and Radiology, Veterinary College, Bidar with signs of scalding of ventral perineum by urine. Upon clinical examination, it was found that there was an incomplete preputial sheath, the penis was not developed, and at the ventral perineum, the urethra opened. The condition was diagnosed as hypospadias and penile aplasia. Perineal Urethrostomy was performed under xylazine sedation with local infiltration of 2% lignocaine HCl. Post-operative antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs were given. The calf recovered uneventfully.
