摘要

A 1.5-year-old mongrel bitch was presented at the Clinic for obstetrics and reproduction at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in Zagreb for spaying. Since the animal had been found and kept in animal shelter, no anamnestic data about her reproductive status were known. A general examination did not reveal any preoperative problem. On ultrasonograph it was found that bitch was about four weeks pregnant. Finally, and with the owner's consent, ovariohysterectomy was proposed and accepted as a radical alternative to medical abortion following an unwanted pregnancy, as it also involves definitive sterilization. The surgical procedure comprising ovariohisterectomy was performed under general endotracheal anesthesia. The procedure revealed segmental aplasia of the left uterine horn with an intact left ovary and kidney.
