We hypothesized that a CUPU would provide a reasonable alternative to the traditional approach of performing a cystotomy after perineal urethrostomy in male cats with complex or recurrent urolithiasis-associated urethral obstruction (UO).MethodsA perineal urethrostomy (PU) was performed in 20 male cat cadavers. A randomly assigned number of synthetic calculi (SynC) was placed retrograde into the urinary bladder, and an endoscopist blinded to the SynC number, performed CUPU using a flexible ureteroscope and basket retrieval device. Procedure characteristics were summarized with descriptive statistics. After completion of the cadaver phase, two male cats with naturally occurring complex or recurrent urolithiasis-associated UO that warranted PU were recruited to undergo CUPU. Clinical features and outcomes of these cases were described.ResultsFour cadavers were excluded because of urethral tearing during SynC placement. A narrow urethral lumen precluded ureteroscope passage in two cadavers. In the 14 remaining cadavers, a median of 7.5 SynC (range 3-9) were placed in the urinary bladder. The CUPU median procedural time was 13.2 mins (range 6.1-24.0) and all 99 (100%) SynC were successfully retrieved from the 14 cadavers. Scope-associated tearing of the urethra or surgical site was not observed in any cadavers. Two client-owned cats with struvite urolithiasis-associated UO underwent a PU followed by CUPU. All uroliths were successfully retrieved, and periprocedural complications were not observed. Both cats had normal stoma sites 4 weeks postoperatively and neither cat had owner-reported dysuria 3 months postoperatively.Conclusions and relevanceThis study highlighted that CUPU is a feasible procedure with the potential to obviate the need for abdominal surgery in some cats with cystolithiasis and urolithiasis-associated UO that warrant PU.</p>","PeriodicalId":15851,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery","volume":"27 4","pages":"1098612X251325716"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12035374/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144023635","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A single batch of samples was analysed for sCr and sSDMA with one in-house laboratory machine and in three commercial laboratories. In addition, sCr values from 63 healthy cats aged ⩾10 years were used to calculate an age-specific RI for the in-house analyser.ResultsDespite a relatively good correlation (interclass correlation coefficient [ICC] = 0.875), the in-house analyser consistently reported lower sCr values, while for sSDMA, systematically higher values were obtained in one commercial laboratory (ICC = 0.707).

MAP uroliths are commonly associated with urease bacterial infection in dogs. Urinary tract infections (UTIs) could increase the risk of urolithiasis, but there have only been limited studies to date in cats in developing countries. This study evaluates the association between UTI, sex, age and the occurrence of MAP uroliths compared with CaOx uroliths in cats treated for urolithiasis at Kasetsart University Veterinary Teaching Hospital, Thailand.MethodsA retrospective study was conducted of medical records from cats undergoing surgery for urolithiasis at Kasetsart University Veterinary Teaching Hospital, Thailand between 2016 and 2021. Data retrieval included mineral type, age, sex, breed and culture results. Uroliths were analysed via Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) assessed risk factors for MAP urolith formation.ResultsData from 264 cats (168 males, median age 5 years; 95 females, median age 5.1 years; one unidentified) were included. Calcium oxalate (CaOx) was the most common urolith (170/264, 64.4%), followed by MAP urolithiasis (80/264, 30.3%). A total of 176 urine samples were cultured, of which 36/58 MAP cases, 32/107 CaOx cases and 5/11 other urolith cases tested positive.

Anaesthetised cats underwent three treatments at intervals of 2 months. Each treatment had a controlled haemorrhage phase and a resuscitation phase. The haemorrhage phase is the focus of this study. Arterial (carotid artery) and central venous blood were drawn simultaneously from preplaced catheters before haemorrhage (euvolaemic state; mean ± SD blood loss 1.3 ± 0.3 ml/kg for pre-haemorrhage data collection) and soon after controlled haemorrhage (hypovolaemic state; mean ± SD blood loss 15.8 ± 9.9 ml/kg). Acid-base variables from arterial and venous blood were compared under euvolaemic and hypovolaemic states as follows: (1) a paired <i>t</i>-test to determine the differences between the two samples; (2) a Bland-Altman plot to evaluate agreement and establish maximum clinically acceptable differences (defined a priori); and (3) Pearson's correlation with least squares linear regression to determine the strength of correlation between the variables.ResultsThe differences in pH and partial pressure of carbon dioxide were statistically significant under euvolaemic and hypovolaemic states but would not alter clinical decision-making. Agreements were clinically acceptable for all acid-base variables, except for the bias observed in the partial pressure of carbon dioxide under a hypovolaemic state. Correlations for all variables were strong under a euvolaemic state but weakened under a hypovolaemic state.Conclusions and relevanceUsing central venous blood sampling for acid-base analysis was clinically acceptable compared with arterial blood in our haemorrhage-resuscitation cat model during early compensated hypovolaemia. However, the partial pressure of carbon dioxide should be interpreted with caution, especially during hypovolaemia. Further investigation is necessary to determine whether these findings can be translated to critically ill cats.</p>","PeriodicalId":15851,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery","volume":"27 3","pages":"1098612X241309829"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11938473/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143676585","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
