Summary:In recent three and half years, the eighteen cases of long survivals of goats over one month including 100 days ware experience. In blood chemical analysis, Ht and Tp decrease gradually after surgical operation, however the values trend to recover one month later, β-globulin shows transiently high value and γ-globulin increases gradually and even three months later. LDH shows trausient increase, however the tests of liver functions, kidney functions, fatty metabolism and electrolytes show no significant change. The causes of death of the eighteen cases are eight thrombus or emboli, two low cardiac output, two malnutrition, two blood pump rupture, etc.
