A 12-year-old bitch, Yorkshire terrier, was admitted to the Chungbuk National University animal hospital with draining from mammary masses in the left and right mammary glands. She was involved in the mammary masses, suffering bilateral inguinal hernia. Physical examination during the hospitalization demonstrated the masses in right (3 cm) and left (1.5 cm) mammary glands. Blood pool images didn\`t show the subtle increase in blood flow to the inguinal hernia, and the increase of radionuclide distribution to the mammary gland on the soft tissue phase. However, delayed bone images showed a very focal lesion in the right mammary gland. These findings were confirmed on a subsequent biopsy, which also revealed adenocarcinoma with areas of malignant new bone formation. We present a case of primary mammary adenocarcinoma with $^{99m}Tc-MDP$ activity relative to normal bone. Tumor in the bitch demonstrates malignant new bone formation as the likely mechanism for the marked radiotracer avidity.

A 6-year old, Greyhound bitch was presented with vaginal hemorrhage and dystocia. Physical examination revealed severe vaginal hemorrhage, abdominal pain, pale mucous membranes and the presence of solid structures to abdominal palpation. A hematological test revealed a marked hemorrhagic anemia, and abdominal radiography and ultrasonographic examination showed two dead fetuses in the uterus. Median laparotomy revealed a rupture of the left uterine horn adjacent to the bifurcation, region of weakened uterine wall in the right uterine horn, blood clots and uterine fluids in abdominal cavity without septic peritonitis. The bitch underwent ovariohysterectomy and recovered without complication.

A 10-year-old spayed female Yorkshire Terrier visited for a physical checkup. The bitch had a history of ovariohysterectomy for treatment of pyometra a year ago. On physical examination, the dog was bright and alert. Complete blood counts, serum biochemistry and blood gas analysis results did not show any deviations within normal ranges. Radiographic and ultrasonographic examinations revealed unilateral hydronephrosis and hydroureter of the right kidney and ureter, and obstruction of the distal ureter was observed. On the basis of these results, nephroureterectomy was performed. During the operation, the adhesion of the distal ureter and surrounding tissue cells were observed without the evidence of the ureteral ligation. The distal ureteral obstruction was presumed to be adhesion caused by fibrous tissue formation between ureter and retained broad ligament, or incompletely removed blood clots following ovariohysterectomy. This case report describes the occurrence of hydroureteronephrosis caused by adhesion of the distal ureter following ovariohysterectomy in a bitch.

A six-year old bitch pregnant with prolonged gestation over about one month was ovariohysterectomied. The bitch was proved to be normal by physical and biochemical examination and had not a purulent vaginal discharge. A large firm mass was palpated in left caudoventral abdomen. Radiography identified the mass as a fetus. The abdominal ultrasono-graphy identified the fetus was dead. Caesarian section through the median raphe over linea alba was attempted. Adhensions were found between the uterus, stomach, spleen, urinary bladder, and abdominal viscera. Two fragments of bone were found in the abdominal cavity because of rupture of left uterine horn. Radiography and ultrasonography were proved to be of use to diagnose prolonged fetal mummification. Ovario-hysterectomy was considered to be choice of treatment to remove the prolonged mummified fetus.

A four-year old bitch which showed occasional hemomorragic exudate from the vulva for two weeks after the previous estrus 7 months ago was ovariohysterectomied. About 200m1 of sanguineous fluid was flowed out from the uterus and some scattered blood clots were found in both uterine horns. Hematometra of the bitch which was presumed to occur during the proestrus two weeks ago was thought to progress into early pyometra at the time of diagnosis. To diagnose hematometra, vaginal examination using vaginal speculum or vaginoscope and hematological examination were performed. Radiography and ultrasonography were also proved to be of use to diagnose hematometra. Treatment for hematometra was considered to be the same as for the case of pyometra.

This report describes a case of postpartum uterine rupture associated with retained placenta and sequential acute metritis, not dystocia. A 14-month-old Bichon Frise bitch presented with continuous vaginal bleeding. She delivered five puppies 3 days ago and expelled four placentas on the next day. After then, anorexia, acute depression with continuous vaginal haemorrhage developed. Plain radiography showed decreased serosal detail, and ultrasonography showed irregularly thickened uterine wall and ascites. Blood-tinged peritoneal fluid was an exudate with bacteria. Ovariohysterectomy was curative for the patient, and four full-thickness perforated holes were identified on both sides of the uterine horns.

An 11-year-old poodle bitch was presented for investigation of multicentric mammary masses. Abdominal sonography and radiography demonstrated abnormal enlargement of uterus and ovaries. Blood analysis revealed high progesterone concentration. The ovariohysterectomy and mastectomy were performed. Histopathologically, the mammary masses revealed complex carcinoma-tubulopapillary carcinoma with papillary pattern and tubule pattern. In the uterus, cystic endometrial hyperplasia was observed. Scattered inflammatory cells were observed in the endometrial stroma and mucinous material was protruded from endometrial surface. Also, in the ovaries, bilateral ovary granulosa cell tumor was detected. The bitch made a complete recovery following the ovariohysterectomy and mastectomy. This case was a very rare multiple tumor occurrence with bilateral ovary granulosa cell tumor and mammary complex carcinoma. High progesterone concentration was characterized clinically in the bitch.

This report describes a case of newly recognized congenital $M{\ddot{u}}llerian$ duct anomaly in a bitch. A fourteen-year-old, mixed breed bitch was presented with mild hematuria and mammary gland tumor. Complementary examinations were performed and abdominal ultrasonography revealed distended uterine horns and uterine tumor-like mass around the right ovarian area. Macroscopic examination showed the mass to be on the level of insertion of the right round ligament. The mass was cystic in nature, and had no communication with the uterine cavity. Histopathologically, the mass was identified as an accessory cavity lined by functional endometrium, which confirmed the diagnosis of accessory and cavitated uterine mass.

개에서 자궁축농증은 발정휴지기에 주로 발생하는 질병으로서 급성으로 발병하여 만성 질병 경과를 나타낸다. 또한 장막성 낭포는 분만 후 자궁의 퇴축이 급속하게 일어나는 수복기 동안 흔히 발생한다. 10세 암컷 골든 리트리버견이 무기력, 식욕부진, 빈호흡, 복부팽만 및 비정상적인 외음부 분비물의 증상으로 내원하였다. 방사선 검사, 초음파 검사 및 실험실적 검사를 통하여 자궁축농증으로 진단되었고 난소자궁적출술이 시행되었다. 육안으로 관찰한 결과, 자궁은 팽만 되어 있었으며, 부분적으로 복벽과 유착되어있었다. 또한, 자궁 전반에 걸쳐 맑은 액체로 충만해 있는 낭포들이 관찰되었다. 세균배양검사를 통하여 자궁내강에 차있던 농에서 대장균이 감염되어있다는 것을 확인하였으며, enrofloxacin에 감수성이 있었다. 낭포에 대한 조직검사를 실시하여 자궁축농증과 장막성 낭포로 최종 진단하였다.

2001년 4월 19일에 11살 된 말티즈 암캐의 비정상적 자궁에 대한 검사의뢰가 들어왔다. 육안적 검사에서 얇은 막으로 된 다양한 자궁 낭종이 관찰되었다. 그 수는 5개이며 그중 2개는 자궁체의 장막면에 위치하고 있었으며 7∼8 mm 정도의 직경을 가지고 있었다. 나머지 3개는 직경 1∼2 mm 정도의 크기이며 자궁각의 장막면에 위치하고 있었고, 절개시 모든 낭종들은 장액성 액체들로 가득 차 있었다. 병리조직학적 검사에서는 모든 낭종들이 자궁의 장막하에 존재하고 있었다. 낭종의 상피세포들과 이들의 위치는 모두 Gartner's duct와 동일한 것들이었고, 따라서 Gartner's duct cyst로 진단하게 되었다.
