PRE AND POST EVALUATIONS OF HEMATOLOGICAL AND SERUM BIOCHEMICAL PARAMETERS OF RUMENOTOMY IN CATTLE

This study was aimed at investigating the pre and post rumenotomy evaluations of 13 cattle with various ruminal disorders at University of Gondar veterinary clinic, Gondar town, Ethiopia from September 2013 to May 2014. Hematological and serum biochemical parameters were studied in all the cattle. The comparisons of the means between different stages of hematological and serum biochemical parameters of different ruminal disorders were determined by repeated measure ANOVA to evaluate pre and post rumenotomy changes. In haematology Hb, PCV and TLC levels increased significantly from the presurgical values up to 24 hrs and 48 hrs after rumenotomy. Leukogram revealed significant neutrophilia and lymphopenia from the presurgical values up to 24 hrs and 48 hrs. Biochemical parameters revealed significant increase in ALT, AST and serum creatinine from the presurgical values up to 24 hrs and 48 hrs. Serum TP significantly decreased from the presurgical values up to 24 hrs and 48 hrs.
