. Fig. 187—Abscessation of Uterus with Pelvic Adhesions. Lettering includes that for 187a. /, Cervix; 2, 2, 2, uterine and cornual abscesses; j, walls of urinary bladder; 4, adhesion of uterine horn to bladder; 5, adherent rectum into which uterine abscess has ruptured ; 6, encapsuled ovary with cystic corpus luteum ; 7, thin girdle of lutein tissue. There is no handling to advise for the restoration of the breeding powers. There remains only the salvaging of the animal for beef or possibly for a brief dairying period. Even then there is little of value to do beyond directing good general care

There is no handling to advise for the restoration of the breeding powers. There remains only the salvaging of the animal for beef or possibly for a brief dairying period. Even then there is little of value to do beyond directing good general care and, where possible, advancing recovery by the opening of the abscess instead of awaiting its spontaneous rupture. I have opened the abscess when mature by thrust- ing a finger through the rectal floor into the abscess cavity.
