A 1-year-old, 2.35 kg spayed female American short hair cat was referred with episodic signs of heat at 3 months after ovariohysterectomy. Through the screening tests, bilateral cystic, ovary like masses were shown at the caudal to both kidneys with high serum estradiol concentration. It was considered that the patient was suffered from ovarian remnant syndrome. Laparoscopic exploration was performed, and each of mass lesions was resected by ultrasonic scalpel. Patient was recovered favorably and has been doing well without recurrence of estrus signs until 2 years after surgery.

A 5-year-old Pekingese bitch was presented with a history of vaginal bleeding and copulation before 4-week. Ovarian remnant syndrome was diagnosed on the clinical changes, vaginal cytology and exploratory laparotomy. An abdominal mass was diagnosed on radiography, ultrasonography and Computed Tomography. The remnant of ovarian tissue and an abdominal mass were removed surgically under general anesthesia. Ultrasonographic examination of the removed ovarian tissue (water bath scanning) revealed three corpora lutea. The condition resolved following surgical excision of the remaining ovarian tissue and an abdominal purulent mass.
