摘要
Obstruction of the bowel was diagnosed in 21 camels at Veterinary Teaching Hospital, King Faisal University, out of which 17 were females and 4 males. Faecoliths were removed through enterotomy from the colon in 9 animals. Five more animals defaecated hard dry faeces within 1-5 days of the palliative treatment. Four animals had idiopathic ileus detected by laparotomy. Another 3 camels died soon after admission, one of them had ileus, volvulous and obstruction of the colon. All animals were anaemic, and had Slight neutrophilia and slight lympihopnea but the average haematocrit was within normal limit.
