Abstract
A nondescript ewe was presented to VCC, Warangal with full term and straining. As per the Animal’s history, fetal fluid was lost 6 hours before and was straining since then. Pervaginal examination revealed right lateral deviation of head and neck (fetal malposture) which was successfully manipulated by mutational operations and delivered a dead fetus. Ewe was treated with antibiotic and supportive therapy which was recovered uneventfully.
