Abstract
Reproductive surgical techniques are considered by practitioners of theriogenology to be the best method to manage infertility-causing conditions or diseases of the bull. Injury or diseases of the reproductive tract may cause abnormalities that may result in substantial losses to the producers of beef and dairy cattle. The most cost-effective method of dealing with reproductive conditions or diseases of the bull is culling and replacement. Some injuries, diseases, or conditions are amenable to surgical management. Surgical management may preserve the genetic potential of the bull and economic productivity. The surgical procedures described are commonly used methods to restore fertility in bulls.
