A true stump pyometra is an uncommon problem which refers to a hormone (progesterone) mediated infection of a remnant of the uterus. The term stump pyometra is often misused for a more common condition, a stump granuloma, which is focal inflammation of remnant uterine tissue, often caused by a reaction to suture material and which may or may not have bacterial infection at the same time. A spayed dog with no remaining ovarian tissue should not be at any appreciable risk of developing stump pyometra, however it could get a stump granuloma. The use of absorbable suture material which eventually disappears, and minimizing residual uterine tissue in the abdomen post spay, are also advised. http://www.vetmed.ucdavis.edu/vmth/s...pyogranu-1.pdf |
