An 11-year-old, 75-kg, miniature pig was presented because of haemorrhagic vulvar discharge attributable to chronic endometritis. Ovariohysterectomy was carried out with the patient in dorsal recumbency and anaesthetised using total intavenous anaesthesia and positive-pressure ventilation. A ventral midline approach was chosen to remove the ovaries and uterus, which contained brown fluid and multifocal masses in the uterine wall. Histological examination of the uterine masses revealed leiomyoma, cystic hyperplasia and adenocarcinoma. After surgery, the miniature pig recovered without complications and remained healthy at follow-up 4 months later.
