A 2 years old male buffalo calf was presented with a history of prolapsed mass hanging from of anal region from last 2 weeks with signs of straining and difficulty to defecate. Another signs included inflammatory signs on rectal wall, soiling with dirt and congested mucous membrane. The animal was treated under posterior epidural anesthesia using lignocaine hydrochloride 2 percent. The prolapsed mass was manually replaced and purse string suture was applied. Broad spectrum antibiotics and analgesics were administered postoperatively. Animal recovered uneventfully 8 post treatment days.

The present clinical study describes successful surgical management of a rectal stricture due to circumferential fibroma (fibrous ring) in two recently calved adult buffaloes. Both buffaloes had a chronic history of straining while defecation with no rectal prolapse. At presentation, these buffaloes were passing scanty and pasty feces. Per rectal examination revealed rectal stricture due to demarkable circumferential fibrous ring which was later histopathologically diagnosed as fibroma in the sub mucosa of the rectum. Surgical resection of the fibrous ring was done under caudal epidural anesthesia. Both buffaloes recovered uneventfully and no recurrence of this condition was observed on long term follow up of 4 years and six months, respectively.
