Dog, mongrel, female, 11 years, brought to visit because it has no appetite for several days, reluctance on the movement, mild respiratory impairment. During
anamnestic investigation showed that the dog also has polydipsia (increased water intake) and polyuria (increased emission of urine) and final heat 50 days earlier.
In our application, "the dog has never been pregnant?" mistress with look nothing short of outraged replies: "my bitch? not ever mate!" Not wanting to investigate the reasons for this choice, however, quite understandable in some contexts, we continue with the clinic visit. Injected mucous membranes, temperature, fever, purulent drainage vulvar, abnormal breathing ..... After blood count and eco abdomen ......... Diagnosis: pyometra ......... That collection of pus in the uterus .........
told the owner that:
- pyometra is a disease that occurs most often after 8 years of age, stage diestrale (ie, within 45-60 days after the onset of heat), in females who have been pregnant regular (or in subjects treated pharmacologically in order to remove the heat)
- the choice of the owner not to breed your pet, in some ways, has helped the incidence of the disease ....
- and still have decided never to match the dog would have to opt for sterilization early ......
continue stabilizing the subject and decided to treat with surgery or sterilization (ovary-hysterectomy )......
At the end of the intervention we see the bodies of pus-filled excised hemorrhagic ...........
The bitch after the post-operative recovers gradually .......
After about two months the owner requires the sterilization of another dog !!!!! In summary
............. Information and Prevention for health and welfare of our dogs !!!!!!!
Other clinical cases ..............
