Abstract

This study was conducted to investigate the endocrinal and enzymatic alterations in buffaloes suffering from
uterine torsion (Gr-I, n=10) in comparison to normal parturient buffaloes Gr-II, n=6) just before as well as 1 hr, 1 day
and 1 week after parturition. Serum enzymatic profile revealed that the mean values of serum AST and CPK were
significantly higher in torsion affected buffaloes than normal parturient buffaloes at all peripartum intervals, whereas,
the mean values of serum ALT were found significantly (p<0.05) elevated in affected buffaloes only during prepartum
period. Serum endocrine profile revealed apparently lower serum estradiol 17β concentrations in uterine torsion
affected than normal parturient buffaloes at most periparturient periods, whereas circulatory progesterone and cortisol
levels were significantly higher in torsion affected buffaloes than normal ones, before and 1 hr after parturition only.
