Haemato-biochemical studies in medically managed open and closed-cervix pyometra in dogs*

Six dogs each with open and closed-cervix pyometra (Group I and II) were medically managed with mifepristone @ 2.5mg/kg body weight orally twice daily for five days, followed by cloprostenol @ 5µg/kg body weight subcutaneously on every alternate day after ensuring cervical patency, till complete ev...
