Article Synopsis
- The study explores a new, minimally invasive technique called laparoscopy-assisted abomasal cannulation in bovine fetuses, aiming to improve understanding of ruminant digestion while addressing ethical concerns of traditional methods.
- The procedure was found to be feasible and efficient, taking an average of 15.5 minutes with minimal tissue damage.
- Further research is needed to assess the clinical applications and benefits of this technique for collecting abomasal content and other related procedures in veterinary medicine.

Surgical intervention for umbilical diseases in calves, when indicated, is a complementary and indispensable therapeutic resource for the treatment of umbilical conditions and is commonly performed using celiotomy. However, laparoscopy has demonstrated feasibility in many diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. The aim of this study was to assess the feasibility of the techniques and the surgical time of laparoscopy and celiotomy used in intra-abdominal resection of the umbilical vein and urachus of bovine fetuses (cadavers).
