Pyometra Surgery for Pets in Teaneck, NJ
Pyometra is a serious uterine infection that can affect unspayed female dogs and cats, typically developing a few weeks after a heat cycle. It requires prompt emergency surgery (an ovariohysterectomy) to remove the infected uterus and ovaries. At Bergen Veterinary Hospital, our surgical team is equipped to act quickly and provide the expert care your pet needs.
Signs of Pyometra
Watch for lethargy, loss of appetite, increased thirst and urination, vomiting, and a swollen abdomen — with or without a visible discharge, depending on the type of pyometra. This condition can become life-threatening within days, so prompt veterinary attention is essential. Our team will stabilize your pet, perform surgery, and support you through recovery and aftercare.
If your unspayed pet is showing any of these signs, call Bergen Veterinary Hospital at (201) 837-3470 right away.
