Detomidine (Domosedan) was administered to four groups of donkeys, using four different dosages (5, 10, 20 and 40 micrograms/kg bwt) intravenously. The drug provided adequate sedation at dosages of 5 and 10 micrograms/kg bwt. Sedation deepened only slightly by increasing the dose. Analgesia was considered good with a dose of 20 micrograms/kg, and 40 micrograms/kg provided a deep analgesia associated with a longer duration. No significant changes had been observed in haematocrit (PCV), haemoglobin content (Hb %), total red and white cell counts and differential leucocytic counts. It was concluded that detomidine is a valuable sedative and analgesic drug to be used in donkeys without any serious implications.
A six year old buffalo was admitted with a chronic indurated swelling at the left ramus of the mandible since 3 months. The radiographic picture showed a large osteolytic area and soft tissue swelling at the cheek teeth of the mandible. His topopathological examination disclosed neoplastic epithelial cells arranged in islands and cords. The cells were arranged in palisade form resembling the ameloblasts. The clinical findings, the radiographic features and the criteria of the neoplastic cells confirmed an ameloblastoma in a buffalo.
