Abstract

A buffalo, 4 years of age presented with a history of a large swelling in the ventral abdominal region. The case was diagnosed as ventro-lateral hernia. Since the size of the hernial ring was about 15 cm in diameter, hernioplasty was performed using an acellular rabbit dermal matrix. The animal made an uneventful recovery.
