In the livestock activity there are setbacks or accidents that cause injuries to the animals. The clips placement to identify the calves requires the application of product that accelerates healing and prevents opportunistic infection (cutaneous myiasis, among others). The lack of veterinary products for this purpose, makes it necessary to search for new alternatives. This work describes the evolution of a clinical calf case from the “Niña Bonita” Livestock Genetic Company, Rearing Unit 907, with an ear wound due to placement identification clip, which was inflamed, with necrotic tissue, abundant infection, excruciating pain and a hole through the auricular labellum. The treatment applied so far was Ivomec®, to eliminating the cutaneous myiasis larvae. The OleoVET was applied inmidiatly, after carrying out a deep mechanical cleaning with HPI product and enough quantity was applied to cover the entire lesion and avoid flies. The cures were carried out every 24 h for five days. The evolution photos of the perforating wound were recorded in which a reduction of the typical infectious secretion is observed, together with the vascular regeneration, in addition to the growth of new bright red blood vessels and the progressive closure of the wound. The germicidal action of OleoVET, its stimulating action on wound healing and its usefulness in Veterinary Medicine were confirmed.
