Abstract

An intact female bichon frise dog with anorexia and chronic vaginal discharge, was clinically diagnosed with an open pyometra upon workup and ovariohysterectomy. Two cystic structures were identified protruding from the uterine body and the wall appeared thickened. Histopathology revealed pyometra, cystic endometria hyperplasia, and adenomyosis with squamous metaplasia.
