Abstract
SUMMARY
The presented study was conducted on 60 male and female buffaloes. Praine Hal ( Hoechst ) and Tutocain C Bayer ) were used with different doses and concentrations to induce lumbar epidural anaesthesia in buffaloes. The optimum doses and concentrations of the anaesthetics which are sufficient to give anaesthesia of the flank without interfering with the motor control of the hind limbs, were determined. Also, Rompun C Bayer ) was tested as a preanaesthetic f or lumbar epidural snaestheaia in buffaloes. Some operations were performed to evalirnte the efficiency of lumbar epidural anaesthesia for desensitization of the lateral abdominal wall.
General anatomical considerations of the lumbar vertebrae, spinal cord and spinal nerves which supply the flank of buffaloes were etudied on B formalized buffaloes.
The resulta of the present work on ½ffaloes revealed that
— Lumbar epidural anaesthesia is efficient for operations performed throu€h the flank laparotomy while the animal is in the standing position,
— The interarcual sp&ce between the first and second lwnbar vertebrae is the suitable site for injection
to induce lumbar epidural anaesthesia in buffa1oe.
