Cystic Endometrial Hyperplasia -Pyometra complex, a common pathological condition of uterus in bitches, it is attributed hormonal and bacteriological causes. It is studied in 10 bitches of cross and pure bred and aged from 1-13 years. In this study, the average age of animals was 8.33±1 year. Hematological and biochemical lab findings were evaluated in bitches with or without vaginal discharge. Lab findings were leukocytosis, neutrophilia and normocytic, normocromic anemia. Biochemical results shown increased of ALT and ALKP and a moderate of BUN. An increased number of parabasal and intermediate cells were detected in vaginal cytology. Histopathologic diagnosis confirmed thickness of uteri wall, a lot of cystic glands of it and the pus presented in lumen of uterus and its horns.

The purposes of this study were that through different techniques to diagnose earlier Cystic Endometrial Hyperplasia – Pyometra complex in bitches, in order to welfare of animals.
