Objectives: To describe the surgical management of ventrolateral hernias by using the vest-over-pants closure technique. Animals: On two local breed sheep that were kept under an extensive management system. Study design: Case report. Study methods: Patient history and clinical findings, diagnosis, and treatment. Outcomes: After frequent follow-up and well post-operative care, the patient were recovered. Conclusion: The herniorrhaphy and closure performed in both sheep were highly successful and effective in apposing hernial ring by maintaining equal tensions with minimal wound dehiscence, unlike other closure techniques.
