Abstract

Uterine intussusception is defined as the uterus telescoping onto itself. This condition has been rarely described in animals, and when it occurs, is often associated with post‐partum or pregnant animals. This case report describes the diagnosis and treatment of a uterine horn intussusception in a 1‐year 7‐month‐old, female, entire nulliparous pet rat (Rattus norvegicus). The rat presented for a 1‐day history of sanguineous vaginal discharge. An exploratory laparotomy was performed, and the rat was diagnosed with a firm, off‐white approximately 1 cm cervical mass and a left uterine horn intussusception. An ovariohysterectomy was performed for therapeutic and diagnostic purposes, and the mass was diagnosed as a benign endometrial stromal polyp on histopathology. Ten days post‐operative, the surgical incision developed a bacterial infection, which resolved with a course of amoxicillin/clavulanic acid. No further post‐operative complications occurred. The rat continues to do well 10 months after surgery.
宠物鼠(Rattus norvegicus)的子宫肠套叠
子宫内膜异位症的定义是子宫向自身伸缩。这种情况很少在动物身上出现,即使出现,也通常与产后或怀孕的动物有关。本病例报告描述了对一只 1 岁 7 个月大的雌性无排卵宠物鼠(Rattus norvegicus)子宫角嵌顿的诊断和治疗。这只大鼠因 1 天前出现阴道脓性分泌物而就诊。医生为它进行了剖腹探查术,诊断出大鼠有一个约 1 厘米的宫颈肿块和左侧子宫角嵌顿。出于治疗和诊断目的,大鼠接受了卵巢切除术,经组织病理学检查,肿块被诊断为良性子宫内膜间质息肉。术后十天,手术切口出现了细菌感染,经过一个疗程的阿莫西林/克拉维酸治疗后,感染痊愈。术后没有再出现并发症。大鼠在术后 10 个月仍表现良好。
