Abstract

The topographical anatomy of the sacrocaudal region of the camel was studied in detail in order to find out the best site for infection in the ep < /strong>idural canal. Estimation of the suitable dose for induction and reporting the time of onset as well as the duration of this type of anaesthesia were also determined. Fifty anaesthetic trials were performed on 37 camels of different age, sex and size. The first intercoccygeal space was the most convenient site for insertion of the needle at 45° angle with the horizontal plane. The 1, 2, 3 and 4% concentrations of procaine hydrochloride were tried. A 2% concentration was sufficient for minor surgical inter ferences in the tail and perineal region, while the 4% cocentration was necessary for operations in the thigh, urethra, udder and teats. The dose of both concentrations depended on the size of the animal. Ten, 15 and 25 ml of procaine hydrochloride were required for small, medium and large sized animals respectively.
