<b>Ultrasonographic findings of an ovarian bursal abscess in an intact female dog</b>
Although rare, OBA should be considered a differential diagnosis in intact female dogs due to its potential evolution to septic peritonitis if left untreated. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first report describing specific ultrasonographic features of an OBA in an intact female dog, which, together with ultrasound-guided abdominocentesis, allowed an early diagnosis. The ultrasonographic findings described here may serve as a reference for similar future cases.
