Abstract:
The current report describes an unusual presentation of haemometra in a haemodynamically compromised bitch and its successful management in a 6 year old Labrador retriever bitch. The dog was brought to Madras Veterinary College teaching hospital with a history of bloody vaginal discharge along with an enlarged and tensed abdomen for the past seven days. Initial diagnostic evaluation included Radiography, Abdominal ultrasonography, Vaginal exfoliative cytology, Laboratory and Physical examination. Complete blood count revealed anaemia accompanied with thrombocytopaenia, hence intraoperative whole blood transfusion was performed. On Laparotomy, uterus exteriorized and was surgically managed by OHE. Post operatively the animal was monitored and its blood parameters were evaluated. Post transfusion results were normal and the animal recovered successfully.
