Difficult parturition process is also termed as dystocia that is of great concern for survivability of fetus as well as dam. A pluriparous buffalo was presented with history of completion of gestation and vigorous straining but no fetal delivery. Upon per vaginal examination, the fetus was found dead. The dam was given epidural anaesthesia and traction was applied coupled with adequate lubrication of birth canal. The delivered fetus was having lateral deviation of head which prevented normal parturition. Following delivery, pain management medications and antiobiotic was given to dam and animal recovered eventually without any complications.
