Abstract: Dystocia is best treated by Caesarean section (CS) in the West African Dwarf (WAD) doe. Â However, this otherwise simple procedure is often associated with high mortalities of does and/or kids because certain simple and inexpensive measures are not taken in the handling of affected does during the period-operative period. This clinical discuss looks at these measures and how they may be effected in a routine farm/clinic practice.
