Gir cow recovers after complex limb surgery in Madurai
Madurai: A two-and-a-half-year-old Gir breed cow from Rajapalayam, which was undergoing rehabilitation after an intricate orthopaedic procedure performed by surgeons at the Madurai veterinary polyclinic recently, has made a complete recovery. According to the veterinary doctors, the cow, owned by farmer S Ram, sustained a transverse fracture of the left forelimb metacarpal bone three months ago when it slipped and fell inside its cowshed. Local veterinarians initially applied a plaster-of-paris cast, but within three weeks, the cow began walking with the leg bent outward, signalling non-union and misalignment of the bone. With the fracture showing excessive callus and poor healing, the case was referred to the polyclinic for expert intervention. A radiographic assessment confirmed a mid-shaft transverse break with mal-union. "Because of the delay in presentation and the deformity that already set in, realigning the fragments was extremely challenging," said C Merilraj, who led the surgical team alongside Muthuraman. The surgeons opted for a closing-wedge osteotomy to correct the axis of the limb. Under general anaesthesia, the fractured segments were realigned and stabilised using an eight-pin, multilane epoxy external skeletal fixator system incorporating 2–5 mm Steinmann pins. "This frame allowed rigid support while permitting postoperative adjustments and easier wound management," Merilraj noted. Post-operative care included daily dressing, controlled weight-bearing, and antibiotic coverage. Follow-up X-ray taken on Friday showed satisfactory callus formation and complete alignment. With healing confirmed, the external fixator was removed, and the cow has since resumed normal walking. Veterinarians said the case underscores the importance of timely referral and proper orthopaedic techniques in bigger animals like cows and buffaloes. TNN

MANGALURU: The Mangaluru City police arrested a postgraduate medical student for making a hoax bomb threat to a private hospital under Ullal Police Station limits. The accused has been identified as Dr Chalasani Monica Choudary. City Police Commissioner Sudheer Kumar Reddy CH stated that the preliminary investigation revealed the accused was scheduled to present a seminar on the day of the incident. In an attempt to avoid the presentation, she allegedly made a hoax call to the hospital. The incident occurred on June 4 at around 8.45 am when the hospital received a threatening call claiming a bomb was planted on the premises and instructing that the hospital be evacuated by 11 am.

Following the alert, around 25 to 30 police personnel, including members of the Bomb Detection and Disposal Squad (BDDS) and dog squad, rushed to the spot and thoroughly searched the hospital, its parking facility, and surrounding areas.
