Mare was transvaginally palpated at the farm by the referring veterinarian; foal was in craniolongitudinal presentation, dorsosacral position with extended forelimbs in the vaginal vault and head just cranial to cervix, and a cranial abnormality of the foal prevented assisted vaginal delivery.	cache/ct-10452.pdf	txt/ct-10452.txt
