Abstract:
A 6-year-old female rottweiler was presented with the history of discharge from the vagina, inappetence, lethargy, dull and depressed. Abdominal lateral x ray revealed uterine involvement with linear foreign body. Transabdominal ultrasonography examination revealed multiple anechoic sacculations with thickened uterine wall. Haematological evaluation showed anaemia, increased BUN and Creatinine level. Based on the history, Radiography, Transabdominal ultrasonography and hematology it is diagnosed as a rare case of pyometra – CEH complex and linear foreign body. It was successfully treated by ovariohysterectomy. More recent and successful medical treatments have evolved, since ovariohysterectomy remains to be the choice of treatment for pyometra.
