Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Prostatic lymphoma in a dog led to uroperitoneum, a condition where urine leaks into the abdomen. This case highlights a rare complication of prostatic cancer in canine patients.

Area of Science:

  • Veterinary Medicine
  • Canine Oncology
  • Urology

Background:

  • Prostatic diseases are common in older male dogs.
  • Lymphoma can affect various organs, including the prostate.
  • Uroperitoneum is a serious condition involving abdominal urine accumulation.

Observation:

  • A 10-year-old Labrador mix presented with stranguria and dysuria.
  • Physical exam, labs, and imaging revealed prostatomegaly and uroperitoneum.
  • Ultrasound showed an enlarged, heterogeneous, mineralized prostate.

Findings:

  • Fluoroscopy demonstrated contrast extravasation from the prostatic urethra into the abdomen.
  • Cytology confirmed prostatic lymphoma.
  • This is the first reported case of prostatic lymphoma causing uroperitoneum via prostatic urethral leakage.
