Systemically affected cows with metritis are usually termed as having septic and/or toxic metritis, which has different treat- ments and implications than a metritis localized to the uterus.12 In female dogs, metritis is a disease of the puerperal period and occurs 0–7 days after whelping frequently result- ing in systemic illness.18 In mares, metritis also extends through the uterine wall, making equids more prone to devel- oping perimetritis and peritonitis which can lead to laminitis and septicemia.19 Diagnosis of metritis in sows is based on the accumulation of uterine fluid and increased uterine size during the involution process.20 It is usually observed within 24–48 hours after parturition16 with fetid, malodorous vaginal discharge.	cache/ct-9806.pdf	txt/ct-9806.txt
