How do you do a cesarean section on a horse?

A cesarean section on a horse, or "c-section," is a complex surgical procedure typically performed by a veterinarian when a foal is in distress or cannot be delivered naturally. The procedure involves sedating the mare, administering local anesthesia, and making a careful incision in the abdominal wall to access the uterus. The vet then extracts the foal, assesses its condition, and sutures the uterus and abdominal wall back together. This surgery requires specialized skills and is usually performed in emergency situations.
