 Exploratory laparotomy may be required in the donkey, as in the horse, for emergency or elective purposes, such as surgical [[Colic - Donkey|colic]], caesareans, and uro-genital surgery.
-As discussed, [[Colic - Donkey|colic]] in the donkey, especially [[Impaction Colic - Donkey|impaction colic]], may present with more subtle clinical signs than in a horse. However, acute signs of pain with nasogastric reflux and distended viscera are occasionally seen, and may indicate prompt surgical intervention. It is important to make an assessment of '''triglyceride levels and pancreatic enzymes''' as speedily as possible, as concurrent [[Hyperlipaemia - Donkey|hyperlipaemia]] and/or [[Pancreatitis - Donkey|pancreatitis]] will reduce the prognosis even if recognised and treated. '''Pancreatitis''' can present with signs of peracute pain in the anterior abdomen, which may be exacerbated by external ballotment behind the ventral sternum. In addition, peritoneal tap samples may show high levels of [[Neutrophils - WikiBlood|neutrophils]], amylase and lipase.
