MICROSCOPIC DESCRIPTION:
1 ovary is exhibiting normal architecture, with occasional formation of empty or fluid-filled cysts. No corpora lutea appear to be present.
Second ovary: This ovary exhibits several small corpora lutea and underdeveloped follicles in several stages.
Uterus: Mild endometrial hyperplasia is evident accompanied by a mild to focally moderate plasmacytic lymphocytic infiltrate.
MICROSCOPIC INTERPRETATION:
Normal ovarian tissue, bilateral, with focal ovarian cyst formation
Mild generalized endometrial hyperplasia with mild plasmacytic lymphocytic neutrophilic endometritis
No bacteria are seen
COMMENTS:
Low grade endometritis is identified but morphology does not support pyometra or active a bacterial infection. Some mucosal hyperplasia is evident as well, considered to be incidental. The ovaries were normal, possibly a bit atrophic, but appear to be functional, 1 or 2 corpora lutea are identified on one side. The ovary on the contralateral side did not show any corpora lutea or any tertiary or well-developed follicles.
