Abstract :
The study cases were 43 calves accepted to our clinics between 2005-2014 evaluated for preoperative,operative and postoperative results of intestinal atresias. The atresia ani cases (n=27) were found to consists of males (n=16,%59.25) and females (n=11, %40,74) and overall rate over other type of atresias was % 62.79. In 11 cases (% 25.58) Atresia coli, 3 cases (% 6.97) were found to have Atresia ani et recti; 2 cases ( % 4.65) were found to have Atresia ani et rectovaginal fistula. The cases of Atresia ani consisted of Holstein (n=19), Simental (n=7) and a mixed breed (n=1) calves. The Atresia coli cases were consisted of n=6 Holstein, n=3 Simental, n=1 local – mixed breed and n=1 Montafon calves. The selected 27 cases of atresia ani, 3 atresia ani et recti and 2 atresia ani et rectovaginal fistula cases over 43 calves were operated and survived.The Atresia coli group of 11 cases were operated but only 2 of them survived, others were lost in early postoperative period. In results, except atresia coli cases, rest of the intestinal atresia patients were able to survive after operative intervention, Early prognosis was found to be crucial for the success of operative treatment in intestinal atresias.
