Peter

Peter
  • Patient:
    Peter, 2 year old male neutered domestic short hair cat.


  • Presenting complaint:
    Urinary obstruction and inability to urinate.


  • Endoscopic technique:
    Cystoscopy to examine urethra and bladder, following perineal urethrostomy.


  • Benefits of using endoscopy:
    Examination of the bladder with a scope identified bladder problems as only the typical bladder wall injury in response to prolonged bladder distention. Because a bladder stone was suspected, endoscopy avoided an abdominal surgery to open the bladder.
