 ABSTRACT

A four year old spitz dog was presented to the Department of TVCC, CVSc and AH, RK Nagar, Tripura with a history of parturition of 2 Puppies in the previous night having distended abdomen with no straining. Trans-abdominal palpation reveals the presence of at least one fetus inside the uterus. The case was confirmed as dystocia due to secondary uterine inertia. Oxytocin and calcium along with I/V fluid was administered intravenously to deliver the fetus(s). One relatively oversized fetus was delivered having accumulation of subcutaneous fluid, diagnosed as fetal anasarca. Haematological and biochemical study of the dam confirmed hypocalcemia, hypoglycemia and thrombocytopenia.

Keywords: Anasarca, Bitch, Biochemical Parameters, Haematological Parameters, Secondary Uterine Inertia.
