. The diseases of the genital organs of domestic animals. Horses; Genital Diseases, Male -- veterinary; Genital Diseases, Female -- veterinary. 156 Diseases of the Genital Organs quite narrow at another. The fluid may sometimes be pressed from one horn to the other through the uterine body. This is in sharp contrast to the distended uterus of pregnancy, in which, if the pregnancy is healthy, the dis- tension is firm and the contained fluids fixed in the fetal membranes. If a careful record is made of the volume of the uterus, and it is re-examined thirty days later, the uterus of pregnancy will have enlarged markedly; distension of a uterus arrested in development would have remained essen- tially Fig. 50—Same as Figs. 48, 49. /, Meatus uriuarius ; 2, 2, Wolffian ducts ; 3. Muellerian ducts ; 4, 4, excavated and distended anterior (ovarian) ends of Muellerian ducts. The mole, or uterine cyst, may also confuse. Like the uterus of arrested development, the mole may remain static for months and the uterus may be flaccid. In this instance, however, the genital organs are anatomically sound, there is a corpus luteum of pregnancy, probably a typical uterine seal, and a distended uterus, static in size. It can finally be differentiated by sounding the cervical canal. The condi- tion is discussed later. As soon as the neuter character of the animal is recog- nized, it should be designated for slaughter, but whether the animal shall be kept until further grown, fattened, or slaugh- tered immediately will depend upon Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Williams, W.
