| dc.description.abstract | Ethiopia is home for Africa's largest livestock population. A number of infectious and noninfectious diseases affect this economically important sector including pets in the country. In recent times, an increasing awareness of the importance of individual animal treatment in both the rural and urban communities, and a growing trend of keeping exotic breeds as companion pets in urban areas contribute to the increased demand in the veterinary services. These stimuli may hasten veterinary surgical treatments. The current descriptive study was carried out from November 2020 to June 2021 at Veterinary Teaching Hospital, College of Veterinary Medicine and Agriculture, Addis Ababa University to compile different surgical affections along with procedures, techniques and their outcomes in various domestic animals. The domestic animals of different species, breeds and ages with both sex category, that were originated from different raising systems in and around Bishoftu town, Ada’a district, East Shoa zone, Oromia, Ethiopia, were sampled purposively from cases admitted to VTH for various surgical treatments. During the study period, a total of twenty three surgical cases were diagnosed, undergone surgical interventions and followed up. Among these, seven cases were Bos taurus, four cases were ovis aries, one case was a Capra hircus, four cases were Canis familiaris, three cases were Felis catus, two cases were Equus asinus, one case was an Equus caballus and one case was a Camelus dromedarius. Except wound dehiscence after performing single mastectomy in a bitch, all the animals recovered with minor complications. The surgeons should be highly equipped with knowledge and skill to get successful outcome. Creating client awareness could reduce the occurrence of postoperative complications in outpatient settings. | |
