This case describes a young non-pregnant cat that presented with uterine prolapse in association with an unusual diffuse, polypoid, fibrosing perimetritis and parametritis. Following ovariohysterectomy the cat recovered fully. No intra-abdominal complications were seen on ultrasound examination 3 months postsurgery. At the time of writing, the cat remains healthy.
Uterine prolapse in the cat is relatively rare and usually associated with the periparturient period. Inflammatory polypoid perimetritis and parametritis have not previously been documented in cats, and in dogs have only been reported in association with the administration of oestrogenic compounds. The polypoid inflammation affecting the uterus and parametrium may have contributed to increased laxity of the uterine ligaments and predisposed to the development of uterine prolapse.
本病例描述了一只未怀孕的年轻猫，它出现子宫脱垂，并伴有一种不寻常的弥漫性、息肉样、纤维化性子宫浆膜炎和子宫旁膜炎。卵巢子宫切除术后，这只猫完全康复。术后3个月的超声检查未发现腹腔内并发症。在撰写本文时，这只猫仍然健康。
猫子宫脱垂相对罕见，通常与围产期有关。炎症性息肉样子宫浆膜炎和子宫旁膜炎此前在猫中未见报道，在犬中仅在与雌激素化合物给药相关的情况下有过报道。影响子宫和子宫旁组织的息肉样炎症可能导致子宫韧带松弛增加，并易引发子宫脱垂。
