290 DISEASES OF THE OVARIES 



A section of about one to one and a half inches of the oviduct 

 should be removed with the forceps and scissors. Care must 

 be taken to prevent injury to the large bloodvessels which 

 lie in close proximity to the egg cluster. The removal of a 

 portion of the oviduct prevents further egg production. 

 After-treatment is the same as for caponizing.
