Bull castration by method of total scrotal ablation

Abstract

In this work, a 2 years and 10 months old bull, with 14 days history of wound on the right side of scrotum was presented. A painful swelling coated by grayish pseudo membranes of necrotic epithelium and fibrin was observed in right lateroventral portion of the scrotum. The presented data enabled us to make decision of performing the total scrotal ablation. The intention was to prevent the influence of probable resorbed necrotic tissue on the vital status of the patient.
