FIG. 5.9. Pubic ligament of a nonpregnant guinea pig sow (a) compared to the pubic ligament of a preparturient sow (b). Note the diminished collagen, mild leukocytic infiltration, and prominent vascularity in the preparturient ligament, which allow relaxation of the pubic symphysis during parturition.
