[An unusual case of chronic fibrosing endometritis and mucometra in a Watusi cow (Bos primigenius f. taurus) with uterine foreign bodies].
Genital organs, ureter, urinary bladder, and blood were collected from a 12 year old watusi cow which never exhibited estrous behaviour. Post-mortem findings and hormone assays, however, indicated the incidence of recent estrous cycles. The animal showed a chronic panmetritis, retained fetal membranes or fetal residues, an infected mucometra with cystic glandular hyperplasia, and a leiomyoma. Tubular genitalia, ureter, and urinary bladder exhibited subacute inflammation.
