Nikahval B, Mogheiseh A., Rare vaginal prolapse and its management in a bitch, Onl J Vet Res., 27 (11): 623-628, 2023.  Prolapse of vaginal mucosa from vulva as vaginal hyperplasia in  pro-estrus and estrus is common but complete vaginal prolapse is rare. We report true vaginal prolapse in an 8-year-old large breed bitch recurrent for months recently becoming persistent. Our case was treated by ovariohysterectomy and vaginopexy. There was a mild pyometra in uterus. Incision on the removed uterus revealed dried pine leaves foreign bodies amongst pyometra. Although the primary cause remained unclear (ie:vaginal prolapse Vs. pyometra), complicating situations should be taken into account when dealing with similar cases.

 

Key Words: Prolapse, Vagina, canine.
