Abstract
In the present case, haematic mummification and its therapy was evaluated in a Kurzhaar hound bitch which was referred to our clinic due to abdominal enlargement. Although there was no evidence of foetuses on transabdominal ultrasound examination, however the radiography revealed 4 foetuses in uterus. Surgery was scheduled to remove foetuses and routine ovario-hysterectomy was performed under general anaesthesia. Two weeks after surgical intervention, the bitch was observed clinically normal. In conclusion, foetal mummification event should be considered in encountered abdominal enlargement cases and radiography should be used in addition to detailed gynaecological examinations in bitches.
