  abstract = {This case report describes a fibrino-purulent necrotizing metritis in a two year old female French Bulldog that appeared after performing a caesarean section because of dystocia. Four days after performing C-section, the bitch was referred with severe metrorrhagia and dehiscence of the cutaneous incision. Metrorrhagia was treated with oxytocin without success and an ovariohysterectomy was performed. The uterine incision showed partial dehiscence of the suture and severe inflammation. In the uterine microbiologic culture isolated Escherichia coli and Proteus spp, while histology showed fibrino-purulent necrotizing metritis.  },
