Popis: Summary This paper compares uterine involution in intact and ovariectomised embryo recipient mares after foaling. There was no difference in the rate of uterine involution between the two groups and on Day 1 post partum intact and ovariectomised mares both have degenerating microcaruncles in the Stratum compactum. At this time the endometrial glands are tortuous and distended along their entire length. By Day 7 post partum the only remaining evidence of the microcaruncle is an area of condensed stroma containing siderophages and a few other mononuclear cells and covered by an intact epithelium. By Day 10 to 11 the cystic glandular distention has resolved.
