CHRONIC VAGINOCERVICAL PROLAPSE WITH VISCERAL INCARCERATION IN A DOG

A bitch was presented for a vaginal prolapse of five years' duration. The prolapse was confirmed by physical examination and evaluated by co ntrast radiography. Herniation of the uterine body, urinary,bladder, a nd distal aspect of the colon was identified within the prolapse. The prolapse was reduced surgically, and an ovariohysterectomy, cystopexy, and colopexy were performed. Compared to other vaginal disorders, vag inal prolapse is an uncommon condition in the bitch. The secondary inv olvement of abdominal viscera appears to be exceptionally rare.
