Diagnosis and Surgical Management of Dog Bite Induced Cystorrhexis in a Dog

Abstract

Abstract
A two years male Pomeranian dog was presented to clinics with a history of dog bite wounds on the ventral abdomen, anuria and anorexia since last two days. It was tentatively diagnosed as lower urinary tract trauma with uroperitoneum based on physical examination, abdominocentesis, radiography and ultrasonography. Emergency laparotomy under general anaesthesia was performed and cystorrhaphy was done after retrograde catheterization of the urethra and an indwelling catheter was placed to drain the abdomen. The clinical outcome of case was discussed.
