Diagnosis and surgical management of urolithiasis in a three-month-old male puppy

Abstract

A three-month-old male crossbred puppy presented with a history of dysuria and anorexia for past two days, suspected for a urinary tract obstruction was diagnosed with multiple cystic and urethral calculi by radiography and ultrasonography. The urethral calculi flushed in to urinary bladder by retrograde urohydropropulsion along with multiple cystoliths were retrieved by cystotomy. Animal recovered smoothly and no recurrence observed for one year post-operatively.
