Canine polypoid cystitis.

S D Johnston, C A Osborne, J B Stevens

    Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association
    |June 15, 1975
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Polypoid cystitis in dogs can mimic urinary bladder cancer clinically and radiographically. Definitive diagnosis requires microscopic examination, and treatment involves surgical removal followed by antibacterial therapy for remission.

    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Medicine
    • Canine Pathology
    • Urological Diseases

    Background:

    • Polypoid cystitis presents clinical, laboratory, and radiographic signs similar to urinary bladder neoplasms in dogs.
    • Differentiating between inflammation and neoplasia based on gross appearance alone is challenging.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe the clinical presentation and diagnostic challenges of polypoid cystitis in dogs.
    • To highlight the importance of histopathological examination for accurate diagnosis.
    • To outline the treatment and outcome for canine polypoid cystitis.

    Main Methods:

    • Case report of two dogs diagnosed with polypoid cystitis.
    • Clinical, laboratory, and radiographic data compilation.
    • Surgical excision of polyps and subsequent histopathological analysis.

  • Post-operative antibacterial therapy.
  • Main Results:

    • Clinical, laboratory, and radiographic findings were indistinguishable from urinary bladder tumors.
    • Microscopic examination of excised polyps was essential for definitive diagnosis.
    • Surgical extirpation combined with prolonged antibacterial treatment led to remission of clinical signs.

    Conclusions:

    • Polypoid cystitis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of canine urinary bladder masses.
    • Histopathology is crucial for differentiating polypoid cystitis from neoplasia.
    • A multimodal treatment approach including surgery and antibiotics can effectively manage the condition.
