| Popis: | The aim of this report was to describe a clinical case of pregnancy toxaemia in a bitch in the late gestational phase. The patient was presented 61 days after the last mating with an ex-treme abdominal distension, depression, prostration, apathy, vomiting, anorexia, dehydra-tion, dyspnea and without any labour signs. Ultrasonography revealed fetal distress and laboratory analysis showed anaemia, hypoglycaemia and ketonuria, so diagnosis of preg-nancy toxaemia was made. Caesarean section was performed and 13 live puppies were born. In conclusion, this is a very rare case of toxaemia during gestation period in a bitch caused by the large number of fetuses. |
