Epidural anaesthesia in cow is generally given in between?

OPTIONS

(C) 2nd and 3rd lumbar vertebrae
(D) 2nd and 3rd coccygeal vertebrae

ANSWER

(B) 1st and 2nd coccygeal vertebrae

EXPLANATION

The first intercoccygeal space, between the first and second coccygeal vertebrae, is a usual site for caudal epidural injection in cattle. Lumbar injection is a different approach, and the other listed interspaces are not the conventional first intercoccygeal site specified here.
