Q

umbilical sx talk on Zach’s calf

A

The surgery was a horseshoe shaped incision between the abscess (mass) and prepuce we made an elliptical incision at the base of the mass
The horseshoe mass is to reflect back the penis and prepuce so you will have more dead space in a bull than a heifer, stab incision 3 o’clock and 9 o’clock,
The umbilical a. and urachus come from caudal aspect and cranial vein is the cranial aspect, then incise around the umbilicus and trace back umbilical a., ligate and transect, transect apex of bladder and umbilical vein, umbilicus removed and incisions closed. Cannot use belly band on bulls with patent urachus because it interferes with their prepuce. Can do warm compress if the calf and dam are nice and okay with that
On PPG, Nuflor, Meloxicam
