| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this report is to present a post-mortem case report of a fifth parity nanny goat which died from complications associated with a mesenteric rent (tear) of the small intestine. Such lesions have not been reported in the same animal. The cadaver was examined using the standard post-mortem procedure. Results showed that a defect of the mesentery was the initial lesion that was then followed by volvulus, torsion and then entrapment of the jejunum and part of the ileum. Anatomically and physiologically this sequence is plausible and expected more often in intestinal obstructive conditions at necropsy. | en_US |
