Any guesses on what’s going on in this bladder?


  •  13 year old/spayed Pekingese, bad athritis and weak in hind limbs, sits to urinate, can’t hold self up.

 

  • In December urine culture came back as Beta Hemolytic Strep (no cancer cells seen in urine)- dog had trouble urinating, also couldn’t control bladder, urine was bloody, puss discharge. Ultrasound in Dec was suspicous of cystitis.

  1. Large amount of hyperechoic

    Large amount of hyperechoic sediment – most likley from retention cystitis. Is she able to empty her bladder fully – if not most likely dealing with neurological disease.

  2. I agree with Remo,

    I agree with Remo, Lumbosacral CT ideal here. You will see this in intact males with chronic prostatic disease as well.
