Abstract
The present study was carried out to evaluate an innovative veterinary catheter for cystostomy that we have developed for small pets, while the technique is for the management of clinical cases of obstructive urolithiais, this operation including the new catheter is devoted to emergency and usual cases in order to minimize most frequent complications engender by other catheters and other procedures that are the most widely used in veterinary practice with urinary obstruction. Fifteen cats aged between 1 and 18 years formed the material of the study. Undoubtedly all animals were diagnosed with a complicated course of urolithiasis with complete urinary tract obstruction. Diagnosis of the disease was made based on anamnesis data besides to physical and ultrasonographic examinations, and equally important, urine and blood tests were also done. The confirmed cases of obstructive urolithiasis were handled via surgery, where the proposed catheter for cystostomy was used rather than other types of catheters which are the most commonly utilised in these cases. The surgical techniques was assessed on the basis of clinical parameters, blood and urine analysis, postoperative complications, furthermore and above all, the success level. After the operations the method has successfully removed the symptoms of urinary tract obstruction, haematobiochemical alterations returned to normalcy and the survival rate was complete.
