| description | Canine pyometra is a hormonally mediated life-threatening uterine disease of canines,
associated with bacterial infection and inflammation. The disease is characterized by the
accumulation of pus in the uterus and systemic illness. The study was undertaken to assess the
relevance of band cells in circulation and Doppler ultrasonography in the prognostic evaluation
of medically managed canine pyometra. A significantly higher band of neutrophils were recorded
among bitches presented with pyometra, which reduced to the physiologically normal range as
treatment progressed in the animals which responded to the treatment. The resistive index, which
was lower than the threshold value of 0.72, increased as the treatment progressed in the responsive
animals and proved to be a reliable tool as a recovery marker. |
