摘要
A two years'old,white and brown Yankassa ewe,weighing 20 kg was presented with dystocia of about 48 h duration at Mabs Veterinary Centre Ltd,Lagos.On thorough physical and vaginal examination,there were evidences of feotal parts and foul smelling discharges per vagina.A systematic and calculated traction and retropulsion revealed schistosomus reflexus cojoined twins.There was a complete recovery of the ewe 3 days post operative management.Finally,this case reported a true schistosomus reflexus cojoined twins in Yankassa ewe which was successfully relieved through traction and retropulsion despite the supposedly small birth canal which precluded the procedure in ewes except for caesarian section or fetotomy.
