Abstract

Surgical interventions on the urogenital system are some of the most common procedures performed in veterinary practice. The present paper describes indications, techniques, possible complications and postoperative care of urogenital surgeries in camelids. Potential complications are discussed, based on retrospective analysis of clinical cases seen by the authors over the past 28 years of theriogenology practice. Although not part of the urogenital system, excision of the soft palate and rectal prolapse in camels are also discussed, as these disorders are related to reproductive activity in this species.
