Comparative genetic and pathogenic approaches of Escherichia coli isolated simultaneously from pyometra and urine of bitches

In conclusion, this study revealed the high genomic similarity between pyometra and urineE. coli isolates, as well as the virulent capacity of both to colonize endometrial and urothelial cells. The findings of this study underscore the importance of concurrently managing both infections clinically and could potentially contribute to future resources for the prevention of cystitis and pyometra.
