Abstract
The objective of the study was to analyze the efficacy of surgical management in goat kids having hypospadias associated with urethral diverticulum. Two male goat kids ranging between 6 to 8 months were presented to civil veterinary hospital Karampur, Tehsil Mailsi, District Vehari, Punjab province, Pakistan between January 2019 to April 2019. The major complaint was the leakage of urine into ventral abdominal wall subcutaneous tissues and prepuce. In both kids, after opening of diverticulum in both kids two false urethral openings were evident. Among them, one was ligated while the other was surgically aligned with penile urethra for permanent urethrostomy. The urethral lining was sutured with skin in simple continuous pattern by black silk and afterwards two weeks postoperative care resulted in recovery of goat kids.
