Multidrug resistance of bacterial pathogens in canine pyometra
The presence of multidrug-resistant bacteria across all genera isolated in cases of canine pyometra underscores the clinical importance of antimicrobial susceptibility testing. Furthermore, the recovery of genetically related Escherichia coli isolates from intestinal and reproductive tract samples supports the intestinal microbiota as a relevant source of infection in affected bitches.
