ABSTRACT
Kavousi N, Khajeh A, Naddaf
H., Effect of lidocaine with
norepinephrine local injections on skin in cows, Onl
J Vet Res., 27 (7): 433-436, 2023. T Local anesthesia by drugs
mixed with vasoconstrictors may induce rare adverse reactions and inhibit
healing. Holstein and native breed cows were referred for cesarean surgery due
to large size fetus and uterine torsion diagnosed by vaginal and rectal
examination. Left flank was anesthetized 2-3ml/cm2 with 2% lidocaine
and 80µg/ml norepinephrine. After surgery, cows were returned 7-13 days with extensive
skin necrosis at left flank and L block site. Affected skin was washed with
sterile saline daily for 5 days and cows injected penicillin-streptomycin IM daily
7 days. Cases healed by 24 days but findings suggests that only 20µg/ml 1% norepinephrine
should be used diluted in lidocaine or saline.
