Abstract

An 8-day-old Thoroughbred filly presented for suspected uroperitoneum. Physical examination, transabdominal ultrasound, biochemistry profile and abdominocentesis were consistent with a diagnosis of uroperitoneum. Exploratory laparotomy revealed a ruptured urachus, but the uroperitoneum recurred at 28 h post-operatively. Computed tomography excretory urography was performed and confirmed the suspected diagnosis of a ruptured ureter. The filly was managed conservatively with urine removal via an abdominal drain. The abdominal drain was clamped after 2 days with no recurrence of uroperitoneum, and the filly was discharged 11 days after presentation.

期刊介绍： Equine Veterinary Education (EVE) is the official journal of post-graduate education of both the British Equine Veterinary Association (BEVA) and the American Association of Equine Practitioners (AAEP). Equine Veterinary Education is a monthly, peer-reviewed, subscription-based journal, integrating clinical research papers, review articles and case reports from international sources, covering all aspects of medicine and surgery relating to equids. These papers facilitate the dissemination and implementation of new ideas and techniques relating to clinical veterinary practice, with the ultimate aim of promoting best practice. New developments are placed in perspective, encompassing new concepts and peer commentary. The target audience is veterinarians primarily engaged in the practise of equine medicine and surgery. The educational value of a submitted article is one of the most important criteria that are assessed when deciding whether to accept it for publication. Articles do not necessarily need to contain original or novel information but we welcome submission of this material. The educational value of an article may relate to articles published with it (e.g. a Case Report may not have direct educational value but an associated Clinical Commentary or Review Article published alongside it will enhance the educational value).
