Abstract: This article describes a case of dystocia in a primiparous doe that was treated with a percutaneous fetotomy. The cause of dystocia can be fetal or maternal in origin and it can result in significant economic losses for farmers. Successful treatment of dystocia requires correctly diagnosing its causes and treatment techniques. If the fetus is dead and mutation is not possible, Fetotomy is a better option than cesarean section due to fewer post-operative complications.
