Abstract


An adult buffalo with history of fever, anorexia, and frequent urination with turbid urine for two days was presented to the hospital. Microscopic examination of urinary sediment revealed presence of pus cells, erythrocytes, bacteria and desquamated epithelial cells. Haematology revealed leukocytosis with neutrophilia. Concentrations of blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine were higher than normal values. Ultrasonography examination revealed presence of mixed echogenic contents with hyperechogenic bladder wall. Based on the clinical, laboratory examination and ultrasonography examination present case was diagnosed as cystitis. Buffalo was successfully treated with inj. amoxicillin and cloxacillin along with symptomatic therapy for five days.
