Abstract

Two dogs were presented urinary disorder in the associated with urolithiasis. Clinical signs were increased frequency of urination with mild straining pollakiuria, general depression and anorexia. On physical examinations, the pain was revealed at the palpation of the urethral area. Urinalysis showed high specific gravity, high pH, and triple phosphates. Radiography showed an increased radiopacity, and ultrasonography showed hyperecho in the just behind of os penis. Urolithiasis was diagnosed on the basis of clinical signs, radiography, and ultrasonography. In the prescrotal urethrotomy, urethra on the midline was incised and uroliths were eliminated. After elimination of uroliths, incision area was closed with 4-0 synthetic absorbable suture. In postoperative, there was good prognosis without hemorrhage, inflammation, and urethral stricture.
