Abstract/ Executive Summary:

A systematic abattoir study were conducted on fifteen hundred female genital tracts of Black Bengal goats to detect various reproductive abnormalities. Of all specimen 42.4% exhibited visible evidence of one or more abnormalities. These comprised granular valvo-vaginitis (10.7 %), cyst in the vagina (5.3%), prolapse of the cervical ring (13.6%), cervicitis (0.4%). metritis (1.8%), pyometra (1.4%), hydrometra (0.4%). salpingitis (0.9%), hydrosalpinx (0.9%), ovarobursal ad hension (3.9%). ovarian hypoplasia (2.4%) and parovarian cyst (1.4%). The study revealed that, 6.3% of the abnormalitis were severe enough to cause complete sterility and 36.17% were likely to result in lowered fertility. Gynaeco-obstetrical disorders (155 cases) were diagnosed on the basis of history and clinical symptoms. The highest incidence of disorders recorded to be that of dystocia (23.8%).

Program Area: Animal Health and Management

Commodity: Goat

Objectives:

To detect various reproductive abnormalities in Black Bengal goats.

Methodology:

This study was conducted on slaughter house materials. At slaughter, the entire genital tract was collected from 1 500 female Black Bengal goats and brought to the laboratory to detect various reproductive abnormalities. The ovaries, bursae, uterine tubes, cervix and vagina were examined. The occurrence of abnormalities were recorded. Goats with various disease problems brought to the Veterinary Clinics of Bangladesh Agricultural University for treatment purpose were subjected for this study. Different problems were diagnosed on 315 animals on the basis of their history and clinical symptoms. A total of 155 cases of various gynaeco-obstetrical disorders were screened out and recorded. Data collected in both abattoir and clinical studies were classified and analysed. The results were expressed in percentage (%).
