Do you need a little break from the hot (or wet) summer??? Here is the next Time To Play…why do you think there is blood in the urine of this cat?

Please share your ideas and answer the questions posted at the end of the video. The answer will come in the next few days…

Gerald Auman, VMD

Dilation of renal pelvis,
Thickened bladder wall
Mass in bladder
Suspect obstruction of ureter(s)

Miriem

Mild pyelectasia (pyelonephritis, partial ureteral obstruction…), vesical cristalluria and posible enphysematous cystitis (by gas producing bacteria, diabetes…).

Federico D.

Moderate hypoechoic thickening of the bladder wall, uneven mucosal surface, hyperechoic luminal septation and presence of large amount of sediment. Pseudomembranous cystitis

Caudle of UB wall thickened
Dilated of renal pelvis
obstruction of ureter was suspected

Blair Johnson

Kidneys appear normal. Bladder wall thickened and potentially irregular. Moderate material in bladder with mild shadowing. Seeing some of the material fall from the wall but moderate amount is adhering to the ventral wall. The adhered material may be blood clots +/- crystalline material.

Thickened bladder wall, uneven mucosal surface, hyperechoic luminal septation and presence of large amount of sediment. Pseudomembranous Cystitis

YGOR MACHADO

Kidneys: Slightly irregular contours, slight decrease in medullary cortical definition, presence of small amount of bilateral perirenal effusion (most evident in left kidney). Differentials: mild bilateral chronic nephropathy associated with acute nephritis and/or pyelonephritis

Bladder: Presence of mucosal surface erosion, small amount of gas in lumen, small amount of urinary sediment and clots adhered to ventral surface. Differential: Hemorrhagic ephysematous cystitis.

Cystitis

thank you very much for sharing

The kidneys' size seems normal. The corto-pelvic system is widened. Thickened bladder wall, hyperecho- urine. Urolithiasis.

Melanie Flabiano

Query:
Bilateral hydronephrosis with echogenicities throughout right sided hydroureter and mildly edematous bladder wall.
? ureteral obstruction, UTI, urogenic anomoly, other pathology...
