Background: Captive tigers can live a long life, around 26 years. Among the diseases described some of non-infectious origin are quite common, such as chronic kidney disease, spondylosis, and biliary cysts or tumors. On the other hand, pyometra has been frequently reported in lions, who have a higher risk of developing the disease than tigers and leopards. Pyometra is a disease with few descriptions in tigers and it may be related to the physiological features of the species. The animal is listed as Endangered on the International Union for the Conservation of Nature Red List of Threatened. The present report aims to describe the diagnosis and treatment of pyometra in a captive tigress. Case: A 7-year-old entire female tiger (Panthera tigris) weighing 140 kg was presented with a 3-day history of anorexia and prostration. For clinical examinations, collection of laboratory and imaging tests, the patient initially underwent dissociative anesthesia to allow catheterization of the cephalic vein and intravenous general anesthesia for orotracheal intubation followed by anesthetic maintenance in isoflurane. On general physical examination, the animal had normal colored mucosa, vital parameters within normal limits, and a body condition score of 6 on a scale of 9. There was no presence of vulvar secretion. The blood count and the biochemical exams showed values within the normal range for the species. The chest X-ray in the right and left views did not demonstrate pulmonary abnormalities. Ultrasonographic examination of the abdomen showed distension of the uterine body and horns, which have intraluminal hyperechoic fluid content without flocculation. Based on the imaging exam, the diagnosis was suggestive of pyometra. Exploratory celiotomy was performed via ventral midline, confirming the condition, which was treated by ovariohysterectomy. The surgical technique was performed as described for therapeutic ovariohysterectomy in dogs and cats. Culture of uterine content identified Escherichia coli. The histological analysis identified diffuse endometritis associated with follicular cysts. The tiger had complete recovery without any complications. The patient was releasing 13 days after the surgical procedure and in the last contact four months after the surgery, it was in perfect health conditions. Discussion: Pyometra in large exotic felids has been occasionally reported, mainly in animals more than 10 years of age. Although the tigress in the report is estimated to be seven years old. The patient in question started with anorexia and prostration and as there was already a history of cystic endometrial hyperplasia, a possible pyometra was suspected, despite being uncommon in the species. There was not vaginal discharge. The definitive diagnosis was by means of ultrasound examination and ovariohysterectomy was performed. Abdominal surgery for these large felids is complex, due to the intra-abdominal volume the flank approach or by laparoscopic is suggested, however in this case a ventral midline incision was performed without intercurrences and complications in the post-operative period. The surgical technique like that used in small animals was effective for the treatment of pyometra in the tigress with the use of ovariohysterectomy. Culture of uterine content identified Escherichia coli, which has been the most commonly isolated pathogen in pyometra of large felids. It was concluded that, as in bitches with pyometra, early diagnosis and surgical treatment is ideal for the patient's recovery.

The aim of this study was to determine the pattern of follicular development in ewes following ablation of all follicles associated with ovarian superstimulatory treatment. After confirmation of reproductive cyclicity using ultrasonography and progesterone levels, five adult ewes of undetermined breed received a vaginal pessary containing 60mg of medroxyprogesterone, maintained for 10 days, with the application of 100ug cloprostenol on the fourth day. On the tenth day, 300UI equine chorionic gonadotropin (eCG) was applied together with 80mg FSH, and all visible follicles were aspirated by laparoscopic ovum pick-up (LOPU). Following LOPU, ovarian structures were assessed using sonography every 8 hours for a period of 64 hours, and the number and diameter of small (4.5mm) follicles were recorded. The average diameter of small follicles reduced from 5.6±1.5mm initially to 0.8±1.3mm by 56 hours. Population size of the medium-sized follicles during the observation period followed a parabolic distribution wherein the theoretical maximum size emerged at 34.6 hours with no difference at (P>0.05) 24 (4.6±1.5) and 48 hours (4.8±2.3). It was concluded that in ewes subjected to ovarian superstimulation immediately following LOPU, follicular development is characterized by a new wave of follicle growth with a predominance of medium-sized follicles (2.5-4.5mm) between 24 and 48 hours, and a theoretical population maximum occured at 34.6 hours.


O objetivo deste estudo foi determinar o padrão do desenvolvimento folicular em ovelhas após a ablação de todos os folículos, associado a tratamento superestimulatório ovariano. Após confirmação da ciclicidade reprodutiva por avaliação ultrassonográfica e dosagem de progesterona, cinco ovelhas adultas, sem raça definida, ao início do tratamento, receberam pessário vaginal contendo 60mg de acetato de medroxiprogesterona. Após quatro dias, foi administrado 100µg cloprostenol sódico e, no décimo dia, realizou-se a remoção do pessário e aspiração de todos os folículos ovarianos visíveis, guiada por laparoscopia, além da administração de 300UI eCG associada a 80mg FSH. Ao final do tratamento, a cada 8 horas, foi realizada avaliação ultrassonográfica das estruturas ovarianas por um período de 64 horas, onde o número e o diâmetro de folículos pequenos ( 4,5mm) foram contabilizados. O número de folículos pequenos, que inicialmente apresentava média 5,6±1,5, foi reduzido para 0,8±1,3 a partir de 56 horas, folículos grandes somente foram vistos a partir de 32 horas (0,2±0,4); a população de folículos médios, durante o período de observação, apresentou uma distribuição parabólica cujo vértice, considerado o ponto teórico de maior concentração, foi às 34,6 horas, não havendo diferença (P>0,05) nessa população de folículos, entre 24 e 48 horas (4,6±1,5 vs 4,8±2,3). Conclui-se que, em ovelhas submetidas à superestimulação ovariana iniciada imediatamente após remoção de todos os folículos visíveis à laparoscopia, o desenvolvimento folicular é caracterizado pela emergência de nova onda de crescimento, com predomínio de folículos médios (2,5 a 4,5mm) entre 24 e 48 horas, sendo o ponto teórico de maior ocorrência às 34,6 horas.
