At Pets R Us Animal Hospital in Aurora, CO, we provide pyometra surgery to treat a serious and potentially life-threatening infection of the uterus in female pets. Pyometra is most common in older, unspayed dogs and cats and requires immediate surgical intervention to prevent severe complications, including sepsis or organ failure.
Pyometra typically develops as a result of hormonal changes in unspayed female pets. Symptoms may include excessive thirst, frequent urination, lethargy, loss of appetite, and a discharge from the vagina. If left untreated, pyometra can lead to a rupture of the uterus or widespread infection, which can be fatal.
Our team performs pyometra surgery, which involves the removal of the uterus and ovaries, in a sterile, fully equipped surgical suite. We use safe anesthesia protocols and provide pain management to ensure your pet’s comfort throughout the procedure. Post-surgical care includes monitoring and follow-up to ensure a smooth recovery.
Pyometra is a medical emergency, and timely surgery is essential to save your pet’s life. If you notice signs of pyometra, contact Pets R Us Animal Hospital immediately. We are committed to providing the highest quality care to help your pet recover and prevent further health complications.
