Abstract
In this paper, the physiology of bovine puerperium and pathogenesis of bovine postpartal endometritis were reviewed. The economic impact of a disturbed uterine involution were discussed and the current concepts of treatment of this disease critically evaluated. Despite the fact t hat therapy is the most controversial aspect of endometritis, some rec ommendations for the management of this problem were given considering the physiology and pathology of puerperium.
