Article Synopsis
- Endometritis can cause fertility issues in various species, and endometrial biopsy is key for diagnosis, but in cats (queens), getting good samples is challenging due to their small uterine size.
- Researchers studied 50 domestic shorthair queens using two sampling methods: uterine lavage (UL) and uterine swabbing (US), comparing the results with histology and bacteria tests.
- Findings showed that UL samples are more reliable, less affected by blood contamination, and better at reflecting the true condition of the endometrium compared to US samples.
