  • Title: Ileocecocolic intussusception in a one-month-old llama.
    Author: Costarella CE, Anderson DE.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1999 Jun 01; 214(11):1672-3, 1640. PubMed ID: 10363103.
    Abstract:
    A 1-month-old female llama was examined because of signs of acute abdominal pain. Physical and ultrasonographic examination revealed a cylindrical mass in the left caudal quadrant of the abdomen. Results of serum biochemical analyses and CBC were within reference ranges. Exploratory laparotomy revealed an ileocecocolic intussusception. Ileocecal resection and end-to-end ileocolic anastomosis were performed. After surgery, fecal examination revealed many coccidial oocysts, although a direct association between coccidiosis and intussusception could not be determined. The cria recovered without serious complications.
