Metody leczenia lewostronnego przemieszczenia trawieńca u bydła

The increase in the occurrence of LDA in cows stems from the increase in the milk yields from cows. The treatment is based on a surgical method, and its effectiveness has an economic effect. The article below presents progress made in identifying the nature of LDA over the last 50 years. Also included is a critical assessment of contemporary and accepted LDA treatments. The surgical procedure has two aims: repositioning and fastening the abomasum directly to the abdominal wall, which prevents the recurrence of this disease. Over the course of the last 50 years LDA surgery has evolved from the laparotomy method to laparoscopy. This latest method has become more readily available and popular. It is characterized by less invasive surgical techniques and faster recovery, as well as lowering the cost of treatment. However, laparoscopy cannot treat every case. Complications or technical difficulties during an operation sometimes force doctors to finish the surgery by laparotomy. To avoid the problem of having to change the technique during the operation, doctors should choose the most appropriate method for each particular case.
