Artificial insemination is considered to be one of the prime tool to augment milk production in India. However, owing to indiscriminate use of AI by untrained inseminators and quacks at village level in cows causing serious injuries to the reproductive tract. Such injuries are often leads to reproductive culling and incur severe loss in the dairy herds. In this case report we have documented a case of retained uterine sheath in the uterus after insemination by the untrained quack and successful surgical management and removal of the sheath by trans-rectal method.
