“…It sometimes occurs concurrent with the exteriorisation of other organs, such as the bladder, uterine body, or distal part of the colon (Gouletsou et al, 2009). This case was a type II vaginal prolapse because the prolapse did not involve the entire vaginal wall.…”

“…Although there was no prior evaluation of the prolapsed tissue, we believe that was probably the uterine mucosa, which was observed through the vulva, a phenomenon rarely described in dogs (Nelissen, 2015), but similarly observed in cases of intestinal intussusception, in which the rectal prolapse is often viewed (Oliveira- Barros & Matera, 2007). Furthermore, we highlight that vagina and uterus can prolapse, during or immediately after delivery in female dogs (Alan et al, 2007;Gouletsou et al, 2009;Nelissen, 2015).…”

Uterine intussusception is a rare condition in bitches. This study aimed to report an unusual case of prolapsed uterine intussusception in a female dog. A 2-year-old American Bully bitch was received with labor history of large fetus requiring manual traction. The animal presented mucosal prolapse through the vulva, unproductive contractions and abdominal discomfort. After partial correction of mucosal prolapse, the dog was referred to ovary-hysterectomy surgery to correct prolapsed mucosa. During the surgical procedure, surgeons observed that the uterine horns were invaginated into the uterine body, rotated, and the tissue was slightly devitalized and congested. As previously described, this condition occurred during the immediate postpartum period. Thus, we suggest that this period can be a facilitator for the establishment of uterine intussusception.

“…The caesarean section was timed to allow maximal foetal maturation while preventing dystocia. While uncommon in ruminants, elective caesarean sections are commonly performed in dogs that experience peri-parturient vaginal prolapse, or have other physical barriers that may preclude normal whelping, although one report suggests that it is possible to whelp normally despite a vaginal prolapse (Gouletsou et al 2009). Due to the potential for the condition to recur or be heritable and because vaginal prolapse in other species permanently resolve after ovariohysterectomy, this was considered the treatment of choice in this case (Sontas et al 2010).…”

Vaginal prolapse is a condition characterised by excessive accumulation of mucosal oedema and protrusion of hyperplastic tissue through the vulva. It has been reported in ruminants and canines, but has not been characterised in felines. This report describes the history, clinical signs and treatment of a pregnant Maine coon cat with a Type III vaginal prolapse diagnosed approximately 54 days after the first day of mating. Prior to queening, the prolapse was reduced and retained using a vulvar cruciate suture. Due to the risk of dystocia and recurrence, a caesarean section with ovariohysterectomy was performed. Postoperatively, a stay suture was maintained in the vulva for 2 weeks, resulting in permanent reduction of the vaginal prolapse. To the authors' knowledge, this case represents the first report of the successful management of vaginal prolapse in a pregnant cat.
