Abstract

The present work presents the activities developed during the Mandatory Supervised Internship (ESO) in the area of medical and surgical clinic for large animals, divided into two parts: the first at the Cattle Clinic of Garanhuns (CBG) of the Federal Rural University of Pernambuco, located in Garanhuns, Pernambuco, from 04/01/2024 to 05/31/2024 from, Monday to Friday, totaling 344 hours of internship. The second part was carried out at the Large Animal Outpatient Clinic (AGA) of the Department of Veterinary Medicine (DMV) of the Federal Rural University of Pernambuco, during the period from 06/03/2024 to 06/14/2024, from Monday to Friday, totaling 80 hours of internship. During the ESO period, supervision was provided by Ms. Dr. Carolina Akiko Sato Cabral de Araújo, adjunct teacher at UFRPE, and by two supervisors, one for each phase of activities, respectively: Dr. Maria Isabel de Souza and Prof. Dr. Carolina Akiko Sato Cabral de Araújo. The completion of the ESO in the Veterinary Medicine course is crucial to provide practical experience, consolidate theoretical knowledge, develop clinical skills, and prepare students for professional practice. Therefore, the objective of this work is to describe the activities carried out during the ESO period, as well as to report a clinical case that was followed during this period of a cow that died due to intestinal obstruction caused by a phytobezoar located in the initial portion of the duodenum.
