Description of a rare recurrent Gartner's duct cyst associated with yeast infection in a crossbred heifer is reported. The recurrence was caused by uncontrolled yeast infection that showed in vitro sensitivity to oxytetracycline. Administration of local clotrimazole and systemic oxytetracycline as per recommended therapeutic dose regime resulted in complete recovery. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A total of 36 cows suffering from metritis were divided into 3 groups i.e. group-IA (metritis without palpable CL), Group-IB (metritis without palpable CL) and group-II (metritis with palpable CL) keeping equal number of animals in each group. Animals of group-IA were treated with oxytetracycline 3.0 gm intrauterine daily for 2-4 days; whereas, group-IB animals were treated with cephalexin 4 gm intrauterine daily for 2-4 days. Single intramuscular injection of Dinoprost (PGF2á) 25mg was given to animals of group-II. Recovery rate, on the basis of results of cultural examination, of 3 groups were found as 80.00, 71.43 and 91.67% respectively. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
