A giant prostatic urethral calculus has not been previously reported in dogs and should be distinguished from prostatic calculus. A 7-year-old castrated male Maltese dog with a 2-month history of relapsing hematuria and urinary incontinence with slowly progressing paraphimosis was referred. On abdominal radiography and ultrasonography, there was a giant calculus in the region of prostate or urethra, one left ureteral calculus, one urinary bladder calculus, and two penile urethral calculi. On computed tomography for evaluating the accurate location and planning the surgical approach, the giant calculus was located at the prostatic urethra. The calculi in urinary bladder, prostatic and penile urethra were surgically removed. These calculi were mixed-type of calcium oxalate monohydrate, struvite and calcium phosphate carbonate. On the basis of the urolith analysis and urine bacterial culture results, antibiotics and prescription diet were adjusted. At the 3-month follow-up, there were no clinical sings but paraphimosis was still remained, and ultrasonography revealed newly-formed, small urethral calculi at the prostatic urethra. This is the first report to describe the case of a canine giant prostatic urethral calculus and its clinical signs, diagnostic imaging findings, treatment, and outcome. CT may be useful to assess the accurate location and surgical approach for such calculi.

과거 방광결석으로 진단되어 처방식으로 관리 중인 6살의 잡종견이 혈뇨 증상을 주증으로 전남대학교 동물병원에 내원하였다. 환축은 복부 방사선 검사 결과 전립선 위치에 결석이 확인되었고, 초음파 검사와 CT 검사 결과 전립선 내 결석이 전립선 요도 내강으로 돌출되어 있음을 확인하였다. 환축은 prostatolithotomy를 통해 전립선 내 결석을 제거한 후 찢어진 전립선 요도를 봉합하였고, 결석에 의한 전립선 내강은 omentum을 채워 넣은 후 봉합하였다. 결석의 성분 분석을 위해 crystallographic analysis를 시행한 결과 결석은 magnesium ammonium phosphate (struvite) 80%와 carbonate apatite 20%로 구성되어 있음을 확인하였다. 환축은 수술 후 회복하여 뇨의 누출은 관찰되지 않았고, 혈뇨 증상은 개선되었으며, 수술 후 6개월에도 특별한 임상증상은 없었다.

A 3-year-old, male Shih-tzu dog with clinical signs of dysuria and hematuria was brought to the Veterinary Teaching Hospital. Chonnam National University. The patient was suspected urolithiasis by history taking and clinical signs but urinary and urethra calculus was not found in the radiographic examination. Enlarged prostatic gland (29.0$\times$28.0 mm) and severe finding of cystitis was observed from the ultrasonographic examination. The dog was finally diagnosed as the secondary urethral obstruction by benign prostatic hyperplasia. Castration was performed to treatment of acute hyperplasia of prostatic gland and prostatic cysts. After 26 days of operation, the prostate was defined small, hypoechoic, symmetric and decreased size (18.5$\times$18.0mm) by ultrasonography and dysuria cured completely.
