  • Title: Successful treatment of uterine torsion in a cat with severe metabolic and haemostatic complications.
    Author: Ridyard AE, Welsh EA, Gunn-Moore DA.
    Journal: J Feline Med Surg; 2000 Jun; 2(2):115-9. PubMed ID: 11716604.
    Abstract:
    A peri-parturient fifteen-month-old female Maine Coon cat was presented with extreme weakness and depression, profound hypovolaemia and hypothermia. Severe hyperkalaemia, hyponatraemia and anaemia were detected. Disseminated intravascular coagulation was suspected due to marked prolongation of activated partial thromboplastin time. Uterine torsion was diagnosed at exploratory laparotomy. The cat made a full recovery following ovariohysterectomy and intensive supportive therapy.
