Abstract

Dystocia is the most common emergency in camelid practice. The aim of the present paper is to review the most important clinical features of normal parturition and to discuss obstetrical situations in camelids and their non-surgical and surgical management, including prepartum and term uterine torsion. This clinical review includes both Old and New World camelids.
