Catheterize urethra to keep bladder empty

37
Q

Cystic Calculi Surgery

A

Most common reason to do a CYSTOTOMY(opening in the bladder to remove calculi)

Most common surgery of the bladder. Ventral approach preferred because there is increased exposure of the bladder neck and you can visualize ureteral orifices.

Empty the bladder

Males: drape prepuce in field.

Always use stay sutures. (Less traumatic way to handle the bladder)

38
Q

Layer of strength when closing the bladder during a cystotomy.

Submucosa is the layer of strength

39
Q

What suture material do you use during a cystotomy?

3-0 PDS small

40
Q

45
Q

Urethral Prolapse Surgery

A

Asymptomatic: reduce with aid of large catheter, place purse string suture and leave for 5 days.

Symptomatic: resection and anastomosis AND urethropexy(moving the urethra to the right place).

46
Q

Urethral Obstruction Surgery

A

Cystotomy after hydropropulsion.

Urethrotomy if hydropropulsion unsuccessful.

Cystotomy + Urethrotomy often performed

Urethrostomy(opening in the urethra)-prevent reoccurrence if medial prevention is not possible.

47
Q

Where should a urethrotomy in a dog be performed?

A

Prescrotal: common obstruction area, superficial, less cavernous tissue. Heal by second intention because less risk of stricture. HOWEVER, can cause profuse hemorrhage and hospitalization.

AVOID perineal because there is an increase risk of infection and a more difficult procedure.

48
Q

Why would a urethroStomy be performed?

Surgical formation of a permanent opening of the urethra at a new site.

A

Indications:

  • permanent damage to the distal urethra
  • recurrent urethral obstruction
  • obstruction that cannot be retropulsed or removed by urethrotomy.
49
Q

Preferred site of urethroStomy in the dog.

A

Scrotal

Drap abdomen, scrotum and prepuce

Make 2.5-4cm midline incision.

Accurately appose skin and mucosa.

50
Q

Preferred site of urethroStomy in the cat.

A

Perineal

Frequent obstruction, strictures and trauma. Failed attempts at medical management.

51
Q

Why dont we do a prescrotal urethroStomy in the dog?

A

Higher incidence of urine scald.

52
Q

Goals of urethroStomy.

A
  • Adequate mobilization of urethra
  • Preserve urethral branches with minimal dorsal dissection
  • Creation of a wide urethral orifice
53
Q

How do we ensure adequate width of urethra during a perineal urethroStomy?

A

Use mosquito forceps to hinge then manually express bladder for leakage.

54
Q

Urethral Trauma Surgery

A

Incomplete or small lacerations- heal with urinary diversion with urethral catheter(increases stricture formation) or cystostomy tube.

Complete rupture requires anastomosis or repair with urinary diversion.

55
Q

Urethral Stictures Surgery

A
If signs:
Urethral dilators
Balloon dilation
Resection and anastomosis
Proximal urethoStomy.
56
Q

A

Episioplasty aka Vulvoplasty

59

60
Q

Vaginal Prolapse Surgery

A

  • Remove glands 3-5(and superficial inguinal LN)if tumors are in glands 4 and 5
65
