abstract
An 8 month old castrated male crossbred pig was presented with complaint of hard swelling at the inguinal region with vomition and absence of defecation for the last five days. Physical examination and exploratory surgery confirmed a faecolith obstructing the inguinal hernial ring. Enterotomy with herniorrhaphy was done with post-operative treatments and uneventful recovery was observed after one week.
