الملخص الانجليزي
Buffalo is an important farm animal for its high economic value as a source for milk and meat production with an estimated number of 5.4 million in 2011. Most of Egyptians prefer buffalo milk because of its white color and high fat contents (6.5-8.0 %). However, buffaloes have low reproductive efficiency and limited productivity (Singh and Krishan, 1992). Uterine torsion is one of the major disorders that affect buffaloes during late pregnancy. Uterine torsion is responsible for about 53-83% of maternal dystocia in buffaloes. The aim of this review is to fully discuss the uterine torsion as a major cause of maternal dystocia in buffaloes, its causes, and the most recent methods for its diagnosis and treatment. Uterine torsion is defined as the twisting of the uterus around its longitudinal axis either clock-wise (to the right) or anti-clockwise (to the left). Many fetal and maternal associated factors are related to the occurrence of uterine torsion in buffaloes. As a major cause of maternal dystocia in buffaloes, uterine torsion may be complicated with death of both the fetus and the dam if not diagnosed and treated early and appropriately. Therefore uterine torsion results in high economic losses due to death of the fetus and/or the dam which in turn impair the dairy production. The most commonly used techniques for treatment of uterine torsion are rolling of the dam and caesarean section with variable success rates. Early interference using the appropriate treatment improves the prognosis of uterine torsion for the vitality of both the fetus and the dam.
