  • Title: Cecal volvulus in a dairy cow: partial resection of the proximal portion of the ascending colon.
    Author: Pankowski RL, Fubini SL, Stehman S.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1987 Aug 15; 191(4):435-6. PubMed ID: 3654317.
    Abstract:
    Cecal volvulus in a dairy cow with vascular compromise of the proximal portion of the ascending colon was corrected surgically with preservation of the ileocecocolic junction. Partial cecectomy was combined with resection of the proximal portion of the ascending colon and anastomosis of the remaining cecum to the distal portion of the ascending colon. The procedure was done with the use of mechanical suturing devices while the cow was standing. Previously, general anesthesia and relocation of the ileocecocolic junction had been suggested.
