questionnumber="3"
question="What is/are the aetiological factor(s) involved with the canine pyometra complex?"
choice1="Cystic endometrial hyperplasia complicated by bacterial infection"
choice4="Cystic endometrial hyperplasia"
choice2="A post partum bacterial infection of the uterus"
choice3="Persistent corpus luteum complicated by a bacterial infection"
choice5="Cystic endometrial hyperplasia complicated by a closed cervix"
correctchoice="1"
feedback1="'''Correct!''' Cystic endometrial hyperplasia (CEH) is seen in metoestrus in the dog. Periods of oestrogen stimulation of the uterus followed by progesterone dominance results in endometrial proliferation, uterine glandular secretions and decreased myometrial contractions. This makes the uterus more susceptible to infection, and infection with bacteria such as E-coli leads to a pyometra. Bitches with pyometra may present either with a vaginal discharge present (open-cervix pyometra) or without a vaginal discharge (closed-cervix pyometra).In the bitch it tends to occur in older animals, usually >3 years old which have not bred and are usually in luteal phase;4 weeks to 4 months post oestrus. [[Reproductive Female - Pathology#ACQUIRED PATHOLOGY OF THE NON-PREGNANT UTERUS |WikiVet Article: Cystic endometrial hyperplasia]]"
feedback4="''''Incorrect.''' Cystic endometrial hyperplasia (CEH) alone does not cause pyometra. The correct answer is that cystic endometrial hyperplasia (CEH) complicated by a bacterial infection are the aetiological factors in the pyometra complex. CEH is seen in metoestrus in the dog; periods of oestrogen stimulation of the uterus followed by progesterone dominance results in endometrial proliferation, uterine glandular secretions and decreased myometrial contractions. However, although this makes the uterus more susceptible to infection, and infection with bacteria such as E-coli can lead to a pyometra; CEH can also lead to a mucometra, with no bacterial infection. Bitches with pyometra may present either with a vaginal discharge present (open-cervix pyometra) or without a vaginal discharge (closed-cervix pyometra). In the bitch it tends to occur in older animals, usually >3 years old which have not bred and are usually in luteal phase;4 weeks to 4 months post oestrus. [[Reproductive Female - Pathology#ACQUIRED PATHOLOGY OF THE NON-PREGNANT UTERUS |WikiVet Article: Cystic endometrial hyperplasia]]"
feedback2="'''Incorrect.''' Post partum, bitches can be susceptible to a post partum metritis, particularly if it was not a smooth whelping. However, pyometra is most typical in animals which have not been bred. The correct answer is that cystic endometrial hyperplasia (CEH) complicated by a bacterial infection are the aetiological factors in the pyometra complex. CEH occurs in metoestrus in the bitch. Periods of oestrogen stimulation of the uterus followed by progesterone dominance results in endometrial proliferation, uterine glandular secretions and decreased myometrial contractions. This makes the uterus more susceptible to infection, and infection with bacteria such as E-coli leads to a pyometra. Bitches with pyometra may present either with a vaginal discharge present (open-cervix pyometra) or without a vaginal discharge (closed-cervix pyometra). In the bitch it tends to occur in older animals, usually >3 years old which have not bred and are usually in luteal phase; 4 weeks to 4 months post oestrus. [[Reproductive Female - Pathology#ACQUIRED PATHOLOGY OF THE NON-PREGNANT UTERUS |WikiVet Article: Cystic endometrial hyperplasia]]"
feedback3="'''Incorrect.''' In the cow, metritis may be associated with a persistent corpus luteum as the uterus is susceptible to infection, but this is not the case with canine pyometra although the canine corpus lutea are normally present for nine weeks post oestrus . The correct answer is that cystic endometrial hyperplasia (CEH) complicated by a bacterial infection are the aetiological factors in the pyometra complex. CEH occurs in metoestrus in the bitch. Periods of oestrogen stimulation of the uterus followed by progesterone dominance results in endometrial proliferation, uterine glandular secretions and decreased myometrial contractions. This makes the uterus more susceptible to infection, and infection with bacteria such as E-coli leads to a pyometra. Bitches with pyometra may present either with a vaginal discharge present (open-cervix pyometra) or without a vaginal discharge (closed-cervix pyometra). In the bitch it tends to occur in older animals, usually >3 years old which have not bred and are usually in luteal phase; 4 weeks to 4 months post oestrus. [[Reproductive Female - Pathology#ACQUIRED PATHOLOGY OF THE NON-PREGNANT UTERUS |WikiVet Article: Cystic endometrial hyperplasia]]"
feedback5="'''Incorrect.''' Remember that pyometra can be open-cervix or closed-cervix. Whilst open cervix pyometra is the most common, these dogs may appear relatively healthy apart from a vaginal discharge. In contrast, closed cervix pyometra is one of the most common veterinary emergencies. The correct answer is that cystic endometrial hyperplasia (CEH) complicated by a bacterial infection are the aetiological factors in the pyometra complex. CEH occurs in metoestrus in the bitch; periods of oestrogen stimulation of the uterus followed by progesterone dominance results in endometrial proliferation, uterine glandular secretions and decreased myometrial contractions. This makes the uterus more susceptible to infection, and infection with bacteria such as E-coli leads to a pyometra. Bitches with pyometra may present either with a vaginal discharge present (open-cervix pyometra) or without a vaginal discharge (closed-cervix pyometra).

choice5="Uterine instability"
choice3="Parturition"
choice1="Hypocalcaemia"
choice4="Prolonged dystocia"
choice2="Iatrogenic causes"
correctchoice="5"
feedback5="'''Correct!''' Uterine instability may predispose to uterine torsion especially in cattle where the fetus occupies one uterine horn.A sudden movement or fall may initiate the torsion. The sequelae to torsion are congestion, oedema, foetal death, uterine rupture and shock. [[Reproductive Female - Pathology#ACQUIRED PATHOLOGY OF THE NON-PREGNANT UTERUS|WikiVet Article: Uterine torsion ]]"
feedback3="'''Incorrect.''' Parturition tends to predispose a prolapse of the uterus. The correct answer is that uterine instability may predispose to uterine torsion; especially in cattle where the fetus occupies one uterine horn.A sudden movement or fall may initiate the torsion.The sequelae to torsion are congestion, oedema, foetal death, uterine rupture and shock. [[Reproductive Female - Pathology#ACQUIRED PATHOLOGY OF THE NON-PREGNANT UTERUS|WikiVet Article: Uterine torsion]]"
feedback1="'''Incorrect.''' It is prolapse that tends to occur secondary to hypocalcaemia not torsion. The correct answer is that uterine instability may predispose to uterine torsion; especially in cattle where the fetus occupies one uterine horn.A sudden movement or fall may initiate the torsion.The sequelae to torsion are congestion, oedema, foetal death, uterine rupture and shock. [[Reproductive Female - Pathology#ACQUIRED PATHOLOGY OF THE NON-PREGNANT UTERUS|WikiVet Article: Uterine torsion]]"
feedback4="'''Incorrect.''' Prolonged dystocia may predispose to rupture of the uterus rather than torsion. The correct answer is that uterine instability may predispose to uterine torsion; especially in cattle where the fetus occupies one uterine horn.A sudden movement or fall may initiate the torsion. The sequelae to torsion are congestion, oedema, foetal death, uterine rupture and shock. [[Reproductive Female - Pathology#ACQUIRED PATHOLOGY OF THE NON-PREGNANT UTERUS|WikiVet Article: Uterine torsion ]]"
feedback2="'''Incorrect.''' Iatrogenic causes, eg giving oxytocin in a case of dystocia may result in a rupture of the uterus rather than a torsion. The correct answer is that uterine instability may predispose to uterine torsion; especially in cattle where the fetus occupies one uterine horn.A sudden movement or fall may initiate the torsion. The sequelae to torsion are congestion, oedema, foetal death, uterine rupture and shock.
