| dc.description.abstract | The study was conducted to ascertain the hemato-biochemical, ultrasonographic and histopathological changes associated with cystic endometrial hyperplasia (CEH)- pyometra in dogs and also to correlate uterine wall thickness with heamato-biochemical and histopathological changes. Dogs presented to clinic at the Department of Veterinary Gynaecology and Obstetrics were selected for the present study. Ten healthy diestrual dogs were considered as control animals (Group I) whereas, twenty CEH- pyometra affected dogs (Group II) selected for the study were further subdivided into Group II-A and Group II-B based on the mean uterine wall thickness. Blood samples were collected from all the animals before ovariohysterectomy and hemato-biochemical parameters were determined using semi auto analyser. Uterine tissue samples collected from all the animals after ovariohysterectomy were subjected for histopathological evaluation. In the present study, nulliparous animals with mean age of 7.18 ± 0.54 years were mostly affected. On transabdominal ultrasonography, an increase in the uterine wall thickness (4.28 ± 0.32 mm) and uterine horn diameter (32.85 ± 13.75 mm) was observed in CEHpyometra cases. Absolute leukocytosis with neutrophilia and lymphopenia were prominent hematological changes whereas, elevation in BUN, creatinine, ALT and total protein level along with hypoalbuminemia were significant findings in serum biochemical profile of dogs with CEH- pyometra complex. Considerable alterations were found in the histological architecture of uterine tissue in CEH- pyometra affected dogs compared to control dogs. However, there was no correlation between uterine wall thickness and hemato-biochemical profile and also histopathological changes in CEHpyometra affected dogs in the present study. | |
