Abstract:
A four-month-old female German Shepherd dog was presented with a history of swelling in the perineal region. Clinical examination, sterile needle aspiration and ultrasonographic examination confirmed the swelling as hygroma. Under general anaesthesia surgical intervention was done. Post-operatively a course of antibiotics and analgesics was administered to manage any potential infections and ensure comfort. On the 12th postoperative day, the skin sutures were removed and there was complete healing of the wound without any complications.
