Practical Techniques in Urinary Surgery I

This DVD on Practical Urinary Surgery Techniques includes an extensive list of practical urinary surgery techniques you can do in your practice.

The author describes a unique technique for retropulsing urethral calculi lodged in the urethra of male dogs that results in 95% success at retropulsing even the most firmly lodged stones.

Ever leave a stone in the bladder or urethra after cystotomy for removal of urethral and cystic calculi? Never again! Howie describes a protocol that ensures all stones will be removed all the time, and describes a technique for canine scrotal urethrostomy that helps limit blood loss.

Feline urethrostomy can be tricky. This DVD illustrates key points in the procedure to ensure success. If the perineal urethra is not available for urethrostomy, a technique of pubic urethrostomy can be used to salvage the patient. Techniques used for penile amputation and penile urethrotomy are illustrated.

Occasionally, bulldogs prolapse their urethra. A simple technique used to replace and secure the prolapsed tissue is illustrated. Several cases of patients presenting with uroabdomen are used to illustrate a variety of surgical management techniques.

Cystourethroplasy is occasionally used to treat urinary incontinence. The technique is illustrated in a clinical case.

Several diagnostic techniques for identifying ureteral ectopia are shown. Transplantation of ectopic ureters can be successfully performed using several techniques. The author illustrates each technique on several clinical patients.
