Summary
Recurrent orbital swelling in a Chinese goose (Anser cygnoides) after evisceration surgery was successfully treated with an intraorbital gentamicin injection. This approach resolved swelling without adverse effects, offering a potential solution for refractory avian cases.
Area of Science:
- Veterinary ophthalmology
- Avian medicine
- Surgical case reports
Background:
- Orbital swelling can be a challenging complication following evisceration surgery in avian species.
- Previous interventions, including drainage and revision surgeries, failed to resolve recurrent swelling in a Chinese goose.
