suspected feline bladder polyp and uroliths
11 yr old FS DSH w/ persistent hematuria, proteinuria and calcium oxylate crystals. Area of mineralization seen on radiographs. Did traumatic catheterization of poly like thickening in bladder wall. Hyperechoic debris appears more urolith-like post aggitation w/ catheterization but did not become gravity dependent as evidence from standing views. Awaiting cytology results, but main question…

7 yr. FS cat w/ renal azotemia (moderate) and UTI. Shadowing of pelvis bilaterally and both kidneys have a 2.5 mm renolith, but not seeing evidence of ureteral obstruction. Renal pelvis and proximal ureters both at high end of normal (2 mm). Wondering about the corex parenchym appearing so lumpy and sectional -mostly hypoechoic w/…
