Schistosomus reflexus (SR), an unusual congenital defect in calves, can be diagnosed grossly by exposed viscera and curved spine with hindquarters twisted up toward the head. SR is typically associated with dystocia and fetal deaths in cows. Hence, cattle breeding programs must be aware of these anomalies to avoid losses from abnormal, non-viable calves.
Schistosomus reflexus (SR) is a rare and fatal congenital malformation in bovines from autosomal recessive disorders. We report a typical case of SR in a non-viable calf after the cesarean section of a crossbred Friesian cow. It was characterized by the inversion of the spinal column and a pronounced ventral curvature causing the cranium to be positioned near the sacrum and tail, along with exposed thoracic and abdominal viscera, limb ankylosis, and tongue protrusion. The postoperative management of the cow, along with the outcome, is also described here.
牛脊柱裂（SR）是犊牛一种罕见的先天性缺陷，可通过暴露的内脏、弯曲的脊柱以及后躯向头部扭转进行大体诊断。SR通常与母牛难产和胎儿死亡有关。因此，养牛计划必须了解这些异常情况，以避免因异常、无法存活的犊牛造成损失。
牛脊柱裂（SR）是由常染色体隐性疾病引起的牛罕见致命先天性畸形。我们报告了一例在杂交弗里斯兰奶牛剖宫产术后出生的无法存活犊牛的典型SR病例。其特征为脊柱倒置和明显的腹侧弯曲，导致颅骨靠近骶骨和尾部，同时伴有暴露的胸腹部内脏、肢体强直和舌头突出。本文还描述了母牛的术后管理及结果。
