    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Medicine
    • Equine Reproduction
    • Surgical Pathology

    Background:

    • Uterine rupture is a rare but serious condition in mares.
    • Typically associated with dystocia or difficult foaling.
    • Often requires surgical intervention.

    Observation:

    • A case of uterine rupture in a mare occurred spontaneously, without assisted or difficult foaling.
    • The condition was initially undiagnosed due to lack of typical clinical signs.
    • Luminal uterine palpation proved essential for accurate diagnosis.

    Findings:

    • Successful non-surgical management of uterine rupture was achieved.
    • Demonstrated the diagnostic value of luminal uterine palpation in equine reproductive emergencies.
    • Highlighted uterine rupture as a differential diagnosis even in uncomplicated parturition.
