WHAT DOES METRITIS MEAN IN ENGLISH?

metritis

Metritis

Metritis is inflammation of the wall of the uterus, while endometritis is inflammation of the functional lining of the uterus, called the endometrium Although these terms can apply to any species of mammal, in humans the term Pelvic Inflammatory Disease is more often used for metritis. Amongst domestic animals, metritis and endometritis are most common in cattle after parturition, and the diseases are often called postpartum metritis or postpartum endometritis. These diseases in cattle are caused by bacteria and occasionally viruses. The most common bacteria that cause postpartum metritis and endometritis in cattle are Escherichia coli, Trueperella pyogenes and anaerobic bacteria such as Prevotella species and Fusobacterium necrophorum. The virus most consistently associated with postpartum uterine disease in cattle is Bovine Herpesvirus 4. In addition, "Several specific diseases are associated with metritis or endometritis. These include brucellosis, leptospirosis, campylobacteriosis, and trichomoniasis" In cattle, bacterial infection of the uterus affects almost all animals after parturition.
