Abstract

A two-year-old female pug was presented with dysuria and a protruding vulvar mass during estrus. Clinical, ultrasonographic, cytological, and histopathological examinations confirmed vaginal hyperplasia associated with ovarian follicular cysts. Surgical excision of the mass was performed under general anaesthesia, and the animal recovered uneventfully following post-operative treatment.
