Abstract | ||||
Amputation of the pelvic limb was performed on 15 native breed goats. Different surgical procedures were applied, namely diserticula tion at the hip joint, amputation at the mid femur and disarticulation at the stile. The aim of this study is to explain whether the animal can tolerate the amputation or not and to establish the surgical procedures adopted in these conditions. The result of the pre sent work proved that all operated animals tolerate well the operation and they were able to stand, walk, run and even jump without impediment. The details of the operative pro cedures were discussed. | ||||
