Abstract
Pyometra is defined as a purulent inflammation of the uterus. This disease mostly involves
elderly female dogs, which are sexual active. In our case it was diagnosed pyometra in 30 female
dogs and 15 of them were treated in veterinary ambulance D-r Stojanoski in Bitola, and 15 of
them were treated in veterinary ambulance Dameski in Prilep. This disease has a complex
etiology. In the etiology of this disease are included hormonal factors and pathogen bacteria. The hormone progesterone is the main reason and occurs increased secretion in the uterus, also the
uterine bacterial immunity is reduced. The pathogen bacteria occurs purulent inflammation in the
uterus and endotoxin secretion which can occur sepsis and peritonitis. Generally clinical signs of
this disease are fever, polydipsia, polyuria, vaginal discharge, anorexia, abdominal pain. The
disease is diagnosed by clinical signs, radiography, ultrasonography and hematology. The
pyometra can be treated with surgical – ovariohysterectomy and nonsurgical (medical) approach.
Key words: purulent inflammation, progesterone, ovariohy sterectomy, uterus, blood analysis.
