Urethrostomy is a surgical procedure in which a permanent diversion of urine is created by suturing the penile mucosa to the skin subsequent to exposure of the urethral lumen. Recommended anatomic locations for the creation of an urethrostomy differ between dogs and cats; however, the complications are common to both species. 


Complications associated with urethrostomy include stricture formation, hemorrhage, dehiscence, urine leakage, perineal hernia, urinary or fecal incontinence, rectal prolapse, and ascending urinary tract infection. 


In male dogs, urethrostomy can be performed at prescrotal, scrotal, perineal, subpubic and prepubic locations; in female dogs, it is limited to a prepubic location. Scrotal urethrostomy is preferred because the urethra in this region is superficial, wide and has relatively less cavernous tissue, which results in less postoperative hemorrhage. A continuous suture pattern that both seals the corpus spongiosum and opposes the mucosa and skin was shown to decrease the duration of postoperative hemorrhage.


3900. Difficulty in urination. FLUTD in male cats in Singapore

 Causes of FLUTD in an indoor cat in Singapore. This cat was fed a mixture of expensive dry cat food and lived with another cat that would eat his food.

One litter box only. Soiled litter box changed daily. "When I put in the fresh litter," the mother said. "Both cats rush to the litter box!" Urine retention for a long time causes bladder infection. I advised two or three litter boxes and let ths cat has space to eat and sleep. He would be bullied by the other cat who puts on weight.

3899. An old dog has been vomiting for several weeks, especially after eating. Why?


A 9-year old female spayed dog vomits some time after eating for more than 2 weeks. Why? HISTORY: 9-year-old female spayed Miniature Schnauzer. Vomiting for some 2 weeks or more. No diarrhoea. Not eating anymore. Usually vomits some minutes after eating but now avoided eating. What is the cause? FINDINGS: Thin. Very painful throat. Periodontal disease Stage 4 (tartar covered teeth). I advised dental work to resolve the severe gum infections around 7 days later. Lungs and heart sounds normal on auscultation. No abdominal pain or lumps on palpation. BLOOD TEST: Red cell count and haemoglobin are normal. No anaemia. White cell count is normal. No bacteraemia. Kidney disorder as evident by an increase in urea and creatinine. Urea 42 mmol/L (Reference range: 4.20 - 6.30) Creatinine 280 umol/L (Reference range: 89 - 177) X-RAYS No abnormal findings in the abdomen. No gastric tumours or foreign bodies visible. No stools in the intestines indicating that the dog had not eaten for some days. INPATIENT FOR 3 DAYS. IV drips with antibiotic and painkillers for 2 days. Day 1. No food. Vomited fluid overnight and vomited canned Hills ID in the morning of Day 2 Day 2 - 3. Ate all Hills ID food. Passed normal stools. Day 3. Owner took the dog home for observation. Hills ID food. TIPS AND ADVICES: 1. Persistent Vomiting in old dogs may be a sign of kidney disease, as in this case. 2. A blood test is needed. 3. X-rays are advised. 4. IV drips to prevent dehydration and to clear toxins are standard treatments. 5. Pancreatitis will be checked if there is still vomiting. The tests add up to the medical costs. 6. Dental work to extract dead and loose teeth causing pain and bacterial infection and ulcerations in the gums is advised.

7. A misdiagnosis of gastroenteritis due to food poisoning or foreign bodies in the stomach is possible. Prescribing medication and sending the dog home after consultation will not resolve the problem of vomiting.


FOLLOW UP ON 19 Nov 2020. The dog vomits once a day, unlike before treatment. He needed to be spoon fed the Hills ID. He does not drink water and is weak. I phoned the owner to tell him to put the dog on dialysis under the skin - Hartmans and dextrose saline for the next 14 days as blood tests showed high urea and creatinine. Kidney disease can cause vomiting.

A 9-year old female spayed dog vomits some time after eating for more than 2 weeks. Why?



HISTORY: 9-year-old female spayed Miniature Schnauzer. Vomiting for some 2 weeks or more. No diarrhoea. Not eating anymore. Usually vomits some minutes after eating but now avoided eating. What is the cause? FINDINGS: Thin. Very painful throat. Periodontal disease Stage 4 (tartar covered teeth). I advised dental work to resolve the severe gum infections around 7 days later.

Urea 42 mmol/L (Reference range: 4.20 - 6.30) Creatinine 280 umol/L (Reference range: 89 - 177) X-RAYS No abnormal findings in the abdomen. No gastric tumours or foreign bodies visible. No stools in the intestines indicating that the dog had not eaten for some days.







INPATIENT FOR 3 DAYS. IV drips with antibiotic and painkillers for 2 days.

Day 1. No food. Vomited fluid overnight and vomited canned Hills ID in the morning of Day 2 Day 2 - 3. Ate all Hills ID food. Passed normal stools. Day 3. Owner took the dog home for observation. Hills ID food. TIPS AND ADVICES: 1. Persistent Vomiting in old dogs may be a sign of kidney disease, as in this case. 2. A blood test is needed. 3. X-rays are advised. 4.

7. A misdiagnosis of gastroenteritis due to food poisoning or foreign bodies in the stomach is possible. Prescribing medication and sending the dog home after consultation will not resolve the problem of vomiting.


FOLLOW UP ON 19 Nov 2020. I phoned the owner today. The dog vomits once a day, unlike before treatment. He needed to be spoon fed the Hills ID. He does not drink water and is weak. I phoned the owner to tell him to put the dog on dialysis under the skin - Hartmans and dextrose saline for the next 14 days as blood tests showed high urea and creatinine. Kidney disease can cause vomiting. Loose and dead teeth will need to be extracted once the dog no longer vomits.

PERSISTENT VOMITING IN OLD DOGS

An old dog has vomiting for more than 2 weeks. Not eating now. 

My top differential diagnosis will be kidney disease and/or gastric tumours.

I took a blood test. It confirms kidney disease.
X-rays appear to show a firm rounded mass in the stomach? Gastric tumour?










X-ray shows an empty stomach with no gas.

It is not possible to confirm gastric tumours in this X-ray 





Consultation  Day 1. Inpatient. IV drips with medication and anti-spasmodic. 

Vomited food on Day 1 morning.



Day 2 - 3. 
Ate all canned food (Hills ID) without vomiting. Went home on Day 3

Stomach is filled with food






---------------------

Rotten teeth may be a cause as bacteria goes to the blood stream to the kidneys over a period of weeks. 

The dog is on IV drip for the past 2 days as a form of dialysis and to prevent or treat dehydration.

This old dog had bad gum disease with thick tartar enveloping all teeth. The bacteria in the gums spread via the blood to the kidneys causing kidney disorders --- persistent vomiting. Yearly dental check up would have been best.
