Abstract
The clinical investigation of urine retention in 3 camels was carried out. Anuria was observed in all the cases. In one case, urethral rupture was clinically evident with the swelling and distension of sheath, perineum and latero-ventral aspect on either side of abdominal wall adjacent to sheath up to scrotum. In another two cases of suspected cystic or urethral calculi, clinical signs were manifested as prolonged act of urination keeping hind limb wide apart, repeated forceful attempts of voiding urine. Later on, animal showed physical discomfort by frequently sitting and getting up, lying in recumbency with paddling of limbs, frequent contraction of sheath, mild distension of abdomen and complete anuria. Per-rectal examination revealed distended and intact bladder. The cases of urine retention were treated by 3 surgical procedures which were used in combination to each other depending upon the case. The surgical procedures included Drainage of subcutaneous infiltrated urine from sheath and latero-ventral abdominal wall by multiple skin incisions, post scrotal urethrostomy with indwelling catheter and cystotomy with catheterisation.
