Urgências reprodutivas na cadela

Abstract

As urgências reprodutivas ocorrem com frequência na prática clínica, estando o seu desfecho favorável associado a um diagnóstico e intervenção céleres. Na cadela, consideram-se urgências reprodutivas a distócia, a piómetra, o prolapso uterino, a torção uterina, a tetania puerperal, a metrite e a mastite. Esta dissertação tem por base a análise dos dados referentes à casuística de urgências reprodutivas em cadelas verificada no Hospital Veterinário Montenegro, no período compreendido entre 1 de Setembro de 2009 e 28 de Fevereiro de 2010. Da totalidade de cadelas apresentadas à consulta com idade igual ou superior a 6 meses, 36,2% estavam ovariohisterectomizadas aquando da sua visita. No restante grupo de fêmeas, foram diagnosticadas 29 urgências reprodutivas, sendo que 24 casos requereram a hospitalização das pacientes. As urgências reprodutivas corresponderam à terceira principal causa de internamento das fêmeas da espécie canina (12,4%), demonstrando a sua relevância na clínica de animais de companhia, apesar da prática cada vez mais comum de ovariohisterectomias e cesarianas electivas. A piómetra é a afecção uterina mais importante e frequente na cadela, tendo também sido a urgência mais comum neste estudo (62,0%), seguida da distócia (20,8%) e tetania puerperal (7,0%). Apenas foi registado um caso (3,4%) de prolapso uterino, metrite pós-parto e mastite, não tendo sido observadas situações de torção uterina. Uma vez que os dados aqui reportados correspondem a um período de tempo relativamente curto, seria interessante a realização de um estudo semelhante, num intervalo de tempo mais alargado, no sentido de aumentar a casuística e procurar estabelecer outro tipo de relações.

ABSTRACT - REPRODUCTIVE EMERGENCIES IN THE BITCH - Reproductive emergencies are common conditions in small animal practice, being their favorable outcome related with a quick diagnosis and intervention. Reproductive emergencies in the bitch include dystocia, pyometra, uterine prolapse, uterine torsion, hipocalcemia, metritis and mastitis. This dissertation displays and analyses the data related to reproductive emergencies in bitches, collected at Hospital Veterinário Montenegro between September 1st 2009 and February 28th 2010. These data shows that 36,2% of the bitches over 6 months of age presented to the practice during this period were already spayed. In the intact bitches, 29 reproductive emergencies were diagnosed and 24 of those required hospitalization. Reproductive emergencies were the third cause leading to the hospitalization of female dogs (12,4%), demonstrating their relevance in small animal practice, despite the increasing performance of elective ovariohysterectomy e cesarean sections. Pyometra is the most frequent and important uterine disease in the bitch, being the most commonly observed emergency in this study (62,0%), followed by dystocia (20,8%) and hipocalcemia (7,0%). Only one case (3,4%) of uterine prolaplse, post-partum metritis and mastitis was observed and no uterine torsions were registered. Since the data reported here relates to a relatively shot period of time, it would be rather interesting to perform further studies in a broader timespan, in order to achieve a high number of cases and establish further inferences.
