The present study was conducted on 15 bovine (10 buffaloes, 5 cattle) suffering from omasal impaction. The diagnosis of omasal impaction was made on the basis of clinical examination, haematobiochemical evaluation, ultrasonography and exploratory laparotomy, and treated surgically by thorough flushing and removing most of impacted contents. Omasal impaction in bovine was characterized by low concentration of sodium, potassium and chloride levels in plasma and higher concentration of total protein. Ultrasonography (showing crescent shaped omasal wall with an anechoic acoustic shadow originating from 7ᵗʰ to 11ᵗʰ intercostal space) was a reliable technique for diagnosis of omasal impaction. Left flank laparo-rumenotomy, flushing with water and administration of oil directly into the omasum was a suitable surgical technique for the management of omasal impaction in bovine.
