  • Title: Pathogenesis and treatment of endometritis in the mare: a review.
    Author: Hurtgen JP.
    Journal: Theriogenology; 2006 Aug; 66(3):560-6. PubMed ID: 16824588.
    Abstract:
    Inflammatory conditions of the uterus, collectively known as endometritis, can be classified as acute, chronic, active, or subclinical. This condition causes substantial reductions in mare fertility. To diagnose and treat mares with endometrial inflammation, it is imperative to identify predisposing factors and challenges to the reproductive tract of the mare in a chronological order; these factors change from those of the young maiden filly to the older, multiparous broodmare. This paper addresses predisposing factors, diagnostic procedures and therapy strategies for different mare groups.
