Pyometra or pyometritis is a uterine infection in dogs
It is a serious condition, and surgery is often required as an emergency.
Ovariohysterectomy
This procedure involves removing the uterus and ovaries, which eliminates the source of infection and prevents future occurrences.
Considerations:
The surgery is more complex than a routine spay due to the dog's illness and the potential for complications like uterine rupture or sepsis.
Post-operative Care:
Intravenous fluids, antibiotics, and pain medication are often administered during and after surgery to manage the dog's condition and aid recovery.
