Abstract

A three-year-old buffalo was presented with a complaint that the left hind teat was hard and swollen since 15 days. On palpation the teat was edematous with a wound on the side of the teat, through which the milk leaked during milking. The condition was diagnosed as teat fistula. Reconstruction of the fistulous tract was performed under 2% Lignocaine HCl using ring block technique. The animal had an uneventful recovery.
