Abstract: The cow’s inability to remove the fetus from the vagina is called dystocia. Maternal causes include malformed fetal-maternal ratio due to maternal pelvic stenosis and incomplete cervical dilatation. Animal immaturity is one of these reasons. This communication is designed to document the surgical treatment of dystocia and its effects on a term-pregnant three-year-old child. Vaginal delivery was attempted but failed due to the narrow mother’s pelvis. Surgical management relies on sterilization to prevent post-operative complications. 30 ml of 2% lidocaine hydrochloride was entered from the left side using the reverse L-block technique. When the cow is in the correct decubitus position. When the fetus is born, it still empties in the uterus, but the tissues return to the uterus together with the umbilical cord. For ten days, sutures were made using surgical techniques and postoperative care, and the heifer regained its health.
