Abstract:
The purpose of this present study was to evaluate haematobiochemical indices in female dogs undergoing laparoscopic and open elective ovariectomy. Twenty clinically healthy adult (median age 3.25 years) female dogs weighing 14 to 38 kg (median weight 26 kg) were used in the study. The animals were randomly divided into four groups A, B, C and D consisting of 5 animals each. The ovariectomy was performed in two phases, in phase I, it has been done through laparoscopy by placing camera port caudal to the umbilicus on linea alba and two paramedian port caudal to that of camera port in triangular fashion in group A whereas; in group B the camera port was similar to that of group A but other two ports were one cranial to umbilicus and one caudal to camera port on linea alba i.e. straight line. In phase II ovariectomy has been done by open surgical procedure in which site of incision to approach ovary was on right flank in group C whereas, it was caudal to umbilicus on linea alba in group D. The haematobiochemical parameters Hb%, PCV was also less at post surgery and WBCs were more as compared to base value at pre surgery. The others biochemical parameters AST, ALT, Total protein, Albumin, Globulin, A:G ratio, BUN and creatinine were within the normal range at various time intervals.
