Q

What is the best method of dehorning?

25
How long should you cauterize for when dehorning a Young cattle?
HEAT until “Copper”
26
Why must you be careful when cauterizing (dehorning) especially with small ruminants?
- Their little brains are right under there | - they get heat stress
27
When can you use a TUBE gouge Dehorner? | -WHY?
- Calves <8 weeks old | * *
28
What dehorner can be used on a calve thats 3m-1year old?
BARNs dehorner - go deep - need at least 1cm of skin at the base of the horn
29
What type of method is the Keystone Dehorner?
Guillatine type method - large horns - not used often due to benefits of early dehorning
30
Why do we dehorn cattle
Our safety and theirs - so they can fit through the chute - dont want to bruise the meat
31
What is important when dehorning?
Must include 1 cm ring of haired skin | -be careful of the frontal sinus
32
Describe the procedure of Cosmetic dehorning?
1) elliptical incision 2) sharply elevate skin 3) OB wire removes horn 4) Control hemorrhage 5) Lavage and close - mattress - simple interrupted - continuous interlocking
33
How can you avoid liodcaine toxicity with Goat dehorning ?
1ml lidocaine with 3cc sterile water
34
What must you be cautious with when providing Goat analgesia for dehorning?
Lidocaine toxicity
35
What is it called when removing horn buds from kids ?
Disbudding
36
When Dehorning Goats what blocks must be performed?
Cornual Branch: 1) infratrochlear (SQ over orbit) 2)Lacrimal (1/2 way between eye and horn)
37
When can you Disbud Buck kids?
3-5days
38
When can you disbud Doe kids?
5-7 days
39
What is the most common complication of dehorning?
HEMORRHAGE!!! Treat: -pulling/lighting the arteries (up to 4)
40
Other than hemorrhage what complication can be seen when dehorning? -what are the clinical signs
INFECTION | -febrile, lethargic, inappetant, +/- malodorous discharge
41
How can you minimize infection during dehorning?
Avoid dehorning during the fly season
42
What is the most common complication to dehorning second to hemorrhage?
Infection - Acute/chronic - FRONTAL sinus most commonly affected (extends into hornat 4-6 mos)
43
At what age does the frontal sinus extend into the horn in cattle?
4-6 months of age
44
Which sinus is most commonly affected with sinusitis from dehorning?
FRONTAL sinus
45
What are the clinical signs of Sinusitis from dehorning in cattle?
1) Nasal discharge 2) discharge from dehorning site 3) factual distortion 4) Halitosis 5) Dull sinus percussion
46
What is the most common bacteria cultured from a sinus infection from dehorning?
Trueperella progenies
47
What is the most common bacteria cultured from the sinus unrelated to dehorning?
Pasteurella multocida
48
How do you treat sinusitis
1) open drainage and lavage 2) standing procedure with local anesthetic 3) trphine holes in sinus 4) lavage (LRS, 0.9% NaCl) large volumes
49
What can be used to create a large opening into the frontal sinus to lavage the sinus?
Trephination | -Galt 19mm trephine
50
What is the prognosis for trephination for sinus lavage?
GOOD unless CNS signs present

- Roaring | - Stinky
55
If you must perform surgery for arytenoid chondritis, what approach should be taken?
Laryngotomy | -dorsal recumbancy
56
describe the laryngotomy approach for arytenoid chondritis.
1) oval skin incision 2) sharp excision of cricoid and 3 rings He doesn’t recommend this
57
Describe the procedure for tracheostomy.
Emergency procedure 1) incision at junction of cranial and middle 1/3 of neck 2) split paired muscles 3) incise annular liagment **DO NOT transects more than 50% of the diameter of the trachea** 4) NSAIDS/antibiotics 5) treatment o underlying condition
