Nutritional Survey of Seven Dairy Farms Afflicted with Abomasal Displacement

A Treatise on Left Abomasal Displacement in Dairy Cattle

Efficacy of moxibustion after rolling correction in dairy cows with abomasal displacement.

This study was performed to assess the efficacy of moxibustion after rolling correction in dairy cows with abomasal displacement (AD). The experimental group comprised 86 Holstein cows with left displacement of the abomasum (LDA) and right displacement of the abomasum (RDA), with a mean age of 3.8 with AD during a 2-year period. The cows were rolled for correction of AD. After the rolling proce...

4b.5 the Occurrence of Abomasal Displacement in Dairy Cows Modified by the Weather Situation

The left-side displacement of the abomasum (DA) or the right-side DA with dilatation and / or torsion is a frequent pathological phenomenon not only due to the increment of animal production, but also to the increase in size of the dairy cow. In the dairy cows’ clinic the pathology’s diagnosis has become a daily routine (Geishauser, 1996, Geishauser et al., 1998). This pathology is responsible ...

Experimental induction of left abomasal displacement: a new educational technique

The purpose of this study was to induce abomasal displacement to the left, and to let the undergraduate and post graduate students get used to the ping sounds of abomasum and other clinical manifestations. The procedure was carried out on eight young bulls, they were sedated and a 2 m flexible tube was inserted through the nasal canal into the rumen. By laparo-rumenotomy, 20 cm of the tube was ...
