  • Title: Comparison of endometrium before and after repair of third-degree rectovestibular lacerations in mares.
    Author: Schumacher J, Schumacher J, Blanchard T.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1992 May 01; 200(9):1336-8. PubMed ID: 1601716.
    Abstract:
    The endometrial response of mares to repair of third-degree rectovestibular lacerations was evaluated. Endometrial biopsy specimens from 8 mares with third-degree rectovestibular laceration were obtained immediately before surgery and from 9 to 15 days after repair. Presurgical endometrial biopsy specimens were classified as category I for 2 mares; category II, attributable to slight endometritis, for 5 mares; and category III, attributable to moderate-to-severe endometritis, for 1 mare. Within 15 days after rectovestibular repair, all endometrial biopsy specimens were classified as category I. Results indicated that mares with third-degree rectovestibular injuries are candidates for breeding by artificial insemination by 2 weeks after repair of the injury.
