Urinary Tract Calculi VI: Surgical Management

1.0K
Procedures for Kidney StonesMedical intervention is necessary when kidney stones or renal calculi are too large to pass spontaneously (typically greater than 5 millimeters) when stones are accompanied by symptomatic infection (such as fever or pyelonephritis), when they impair kidney function, or when they cause persistent symptoms like severe pain, nausea, or urinary retention. Additionally, patients with only one kidney or those who cannot be treated with medical management also require...

Urodynamic Studies: Uroflowmetry

9.4K
Uroflowmetry is a non-invasive urodynamic test designed to measure various aspects of urination, including volume, flow rate, and the time to void. This test is crucial for diagnosing and assessing conditions such as bladder outlet obstruction, bladder dysfunction, incomplete bladder emptying, incontinence, and urinary tract blockages caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and urethral strictures.Pre-Test Instructions:Before a uroflowmetry test, patients are typically advised to drink...

Urethra01:16

Urethra

7.0K
The urethra is a hollowed tubular organ through which urine is expelled from the body. This structure extends from the bladder to the external opening, allowing urine to be released.
The anatomy of the urethra differs between males and females. In females, the urethra is short, measuring about 3–4 cm in length, and opens anterior to the vaginal opening. In males, the urethra is longer and passes through the penis, serving dual purposes: expelling urine and ejaculating semen. The male...

Summary

Urethral prolapse is common in English bulldogs. Surgical techniques and postoperative sedation can reduce complications like hemorrhage and recurrence in dogs with this condition.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Canine Surgery
  • Urology

Background:

  • Urethral prolapse is a condition affecting dogs, characterized by the protrusion of the urethral mucosa.
  • Identifying risk factors and optimizing treatment are crucial for improving outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate signalment, clinical signs, treatment, and outcomes in dogs with urethral prolapse.
  • To identify risk factors associated with urethral prolapse and its treatment.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective case series of 48 dogs with urethral prolapse treated between May 1995 and June 2010.
  • Data from medical records and the Veterinary Medical Data Base were analyzed to determine odds ratios.

Main Results:

  • English bulldogs had a significantly higher odds ratio (366.99) for urethral prolapse compared to other breeds.
  • Resection and anastomosis was the most common surgical treatment (43 dogs).
  • Hemorrhage was the most frequent early complication (39%), reduced by a continuous suture pattern. Recurrence was observed in 57% of dogs, potentially reduced by postoperative butorphanol or acepromazine.

Conclusions:

  • English bulldogs are predisposed to urethral prolapse.
  • Surgical technique (continuous pattern for anastomosis) and postoperative sedation can mitigate complications and recurrence.
  • Castration status did not influence prolapse development or treatment outcomes.
