Abstract

An eight-month-old, entire female German Shepherd was referred for investigation of continuous urinary incontinence not responding to medical therapy. A four-dimensional excretory urography (4D-CTEU) abdominal CT scan revealed a hypoattenuating fluid-filled structure dorsally to the urinary bladder, extending cranially, continuing as the uterine horns, and ending blindly caudally. On post-contrast images, during all contrast phases, a continuity of the urinary bladder and cranial vaginal walls was underlined by a hyperattenuating mucosal surface with the creation of a hypoattenuating fistulous tract. Cystoscopy and exploratory surgery confirmed the presence of a vesicovaginal fistula and revealed that the distal vagina and urethra consisted of one structure.
诊断幼犬膀胱阴道瘘的四维 CT 排泄尿路造影成像结果、膀胱镜检查和探查手术
一只八个月大的雌性德国牧羊犬因持续性尿失禁而就诊,但药物治疗无效。四维排泄性尿路造影(4D-CTEU)腹部 CT 扫描显示,膀胱背侧有一个低增强的充满液体的结构,向颅内延伸,一直延伸到子宫角,盲端向尾部结束。在造影后的图像上,在所有造影阶段,膀胱和阴道前壁的连续性都被高增强的粘膜表面所强调,并形成了低增强的瘘道。膀胱镜检查和探查手术证实了膀胱阴道瘘的存在,并显示远端阴道和尿道是由一个结构组成的。
