Abstract:
A cesarean section was performed on a pregnant doe that had a dead fetus displaying hydrocephalus and Schistosomus reflexus. Dystocia can be caused by fetal or maternal factors, and while the exact cause of these congenital defects is unclear, they may be due to genetic or environmental factors. Treatment for such monstrosities usually involves fetotomy or cesarean section. This is a unique report as there are no other reports available with both Schistosomus reflexus and hydrocephalus in a single fetus. Post-operative treatment after cesarean section involved administering calcium borogluconate, dextrose saline, meloxicam, dexamethasone sodium, and antibiotics.
