A five-and-a-half-year-old Jersey cross bred cow was presented with the complaint of a protruding mass onright lateral aspect ofvulval lip for the past 10 days. Clinical examination revealed a soft, fluctuating, non-painful reducible mass measuring 8 inch in length and 6 inch in width on the right side of the perineal region. Based on ultrasonographic and radiographic evaluations, it was diagnosed as a case of perineal hernia and surgical intervention was advocated. Surgical correction was performed under xylazine-ketamine-butorphanol sedation and epidural anesthesia using 2% lignocaine and butorphanol. Herniorrhaphy was successfully completed using polyester No.5 suture. Skin closure was done using No.1 polyamide suture. Post-operative care included wound management, antibiotic therapy, and pain management. Sutures were removed on 15th day and animal was made an uneventful recovery.
