Abstract
This work was carried out on 10 apparently healthy goats of both
sexes. The females were non pregnant and non-lactating. Their weight
ranged from 20-35 kg and their age ranged from 10 months to 2 years.
The goats were divided to three groups:
Three goats were undergoes frozen transverse section and
computed tomography techniques.
Three goats were subjected to frozen sagittal section technique.
Four goats were exposed to laparoscopy.
The previous techniques were performed on stomach (rumen,
reticulum, omasum, and abomasum), liver and spleen of goats to detect
position, shape, and relation of these organs.
The frozen transverse sections were compared with CT images at
the same level. They were done from the level of the fifth thoracic to the
last lumbar vertebrae. Sagittal sectional anatomy was achieved at three
levels: right paramedian, left paramedian and midline sagittal sections on
the abdomen of goats. Laparoscopy was accomplished at three positions;
dorsal recumbency, right flank, and left flank laparoscopy.
The following results were obtained:
I- Anatomical study:
1-Rumen
The rumen was the huge compartment that filled most of the left
part of the abdominal cavity. The rumen was extended from the level of
seventh thoracic to the level of fifth lumbar vertebrae and might extend to
first sacral vertebra. It appeared at left, right paramedian as well as
midline sagittal sections.
All sacs of the rumen were demonstrated; ruminal atrium, dorsal
ruminal sac, dorsal caudal blind sac, ruminal recess, ventral caudal blind.
