  • Title: Abortion of a mummified fetus associated with short uterine body in a mare.
    Author: Meyers PJ, Varner DD.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1991 May 15; 198(10):1768-70. PubMed ID: 2071478.
    Abstract:
    A mummified fetus was aborted at 284 days of gestation from a Quarter Horse mare with a history of consecutive abortions. The abortion occurred 12 days after administration of supplemental progestogen had been discontinued. Results of a breeding soundness evaluation revealed that this mare had a short uterine body. Other abnormalities were not discovered. This condition may have been responsible for repeated abortions in this mare, and may represent a cause of fetal mummification other than twin pregnancy in mares.
