The objective of this study was to determine if ligation of the common vaginal tunic could prevent or reduce the incidence of omental herniation and eventration in draught colts undergoing routine field castration. It was found that common vaginal tunic ligation, while not completely preventing omental herniation and evisceration, significantly reduced the incidence of these complications and should be considered in those males deemed at increased risk of significant post castration complications.
本研究的目的是确定结扎阴道总鞘膜是否可以预防或降低常规野外阉割的役用小马发生网膜疝和腹脏突出的发生率。结果发现，结扎阴道总鞘膜虽不能完全预防网膜疝和腹脏突出，但能显著降低这些并发症的发生率，对于那些被认为阉割后发生严重并发症风险增加的雄性动物，应考虑采用该方法。
