Equine endometrial cytology and bacteriology: effectiveness for predicting live foaling rates.
Endometritis is an important cause of sub-fertility in mares. The critical indicator of reproductive success and financial return for commercial studs is live foaling rate. Endometrial bacteriology and/or cytology are used to diagnose endometritis and thus identify mares at risk of early embryonic death. However, mares with endometritis may conceive but then abort in late gestation. The aims of...
متن کاملDiagnosis of endometritis
Samples from the uterus have mainly been used for diagnosing infertility and endometritis by bacterial culture 4, 5 , cytology 6,5 and histology. 7 The combined use of cytology and bacteriology as an aid to the diagnosis of endometritis was initially proposed more than 20 years ago. 8 The finding of polymorph nuclear cells (PMN ́s) in a sample shows the mare is suffering from an endometrial infl...
متن کاملDiagnosis of equine endometritis – Microbiology, cytology and histology of endometrial biopsies and the correlation to fertility
The objective of this study was to examine the relationship between pregnancy results and the presence of inflammation detected by PMNs (cytology or histology) and microbial growth from an endometrial biopsy. Following recovery of the endometrial biopsy a quick stained cytology slide and bacterial culture was performed. After this was done the biopsy was fixed in 4% formaldehyde. Histology was ...
متن کاملImpact of Endometrial Preparation Protocols for Frozen Embryo Transfer on Live Birth Rates
BACKGROUND It has been reported that a natural cycle (NC) is similar to or even better than hormone replacement therapy (HRT) in patients with regular cycles who undergo frozen embryo transfer (FET). Hundreds of FETs are managed yearly in our clinic. Scheduling these cycles is critical in a busy unit like ours. This is why we have to prove if a NC really shows a better outcome than other endome...
متن کاملNOTE Bacteriology Contagious Equine Metritis Eradicated from Japan
Contagious equine metritis (CEM), a contagious venereal disease of horses, invaded Japan in 1980 and spread in the Thoroughbred population of the Hidaka-Iburi district of Hokkaido. To eradicate CEM, we ran a program aimed at detecting Taylorella equigenitalis, the causal agent, in carrier horses by using the PCR test, followed by culling or treatment. In 2001, the first year of the program, 12,...
