Ovarian remnant tissue was diagnosed in a 6-year-old female Pointer presented with a history of periodic signs of oestrus after ovariohysterectomy. The diagnosis was based on clinical gynaecological examination, vaginoscopy, vaginal cytology, analysis of serum progesterone concentration, and magnetic resonance imaging. The ovarian remnant tissue was approached in a minimally invasive manner via laparoscopy and resected with a vessel-sealing system. The oestrus signs disappeared within 14 days after laparoscopy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
