abstract
A 12-year-old Pomeranian female dog presented in the department of Surgery and Radiology, COVAS, Anjora, Durg, Chhattisgarh with a complaint of vomiting since for three days, inappetence for 4-5 days, dull depressed and regular increase in the size of the abdomen since 1 month without any vaginal discharge. Based on history, clinical sign and ultrasonography the case was diagnosed as closed pyometra. Before surgery animal was maintained on medical treatment as condition of the animal was critical. With taking all aseptic precautions under general anaesthesia ovariohysterectomy was performed and removed uterus with 2 1/2 liters blood tinched pus with uneventful recovery. It was concluded that in closed pyometra cases ovariohysterectomy was the best choice of treatment rather than medicinal treatment in old age bitches.
