This Article presents the detailed study of oesophageal affections of buffaloes recorded in the clinic of Department of Veterinary Surgery and Radiology VCC CVAS, RAJUVAS, Bikaner Rajasthan India. Different clinical symptoms, types of affections, etiology and postoperative complications were recorded, plane and contrast radiographic study was carried out and affections were categorized based on their diagnosis. Complete obstruction was present in the highest number followed by diverticulum. The site of obstruction in most of the animal was distal cervical regional close to the thoracic inlet and impacted plastic and tarpaulin was the most impacted material retrieved in the oesophagotomy procedures. Conservative and surgico-therapeutic treatment was carried out. Rupture of oesophagus was noticed as a consequence of complete obstruction at proximal site in delayed presented cases. Narrowing of oesophagus noticed at mid cervical region because of the fibrosis of the oesophgaus. Dilation of oesophagus was present in consequences of chronic obstruction and chronic history of ailments. Penetrating foreign bodies mostly sharp needles were present at proximal oesophagus. Early presented cases having healthy mucosa showed the successful outcome and chronicity of the condition resultant in complications and poor prognosis.
