ABSTRACT
Saberi M, Akhtardanesh B, Shojaeepour
S., Bilateral perineal hernia with urinary bladder retroflexion
in a terrier dog, Onl J Vet Res., 18(4): 359-363, 2014. An 8-year-old intact male terrier
dog in stupor with a history of bilateral progressive perineal swelling,
seizure, and anuria was presented for treatment. The animal received bisacodyl suppositories 3 days later for constipation. The owner then claimed that hematochezia, stranguria and perineal swelling began after the treatment.
In plain radiography, the urinary bladder was not visible in the abdominal
cavity. Complete blood count showed leukocytosis and the biochemical profile
revealed increased BUN and creatinine. Conservative treatment was started by
peritoneal dialysis, anticonvulsant, antiemetic and antibiotic therapy to
stabilize the patient for herniorraphy. The dog died due to severe uremic syndrome.
This report describes a bilateral perineal hernia with urinary bladder retroflexion in a terrier dog.
Key words:
Perineal hernia, Urinary bladder retroflection
