Cystoscopic-Guided Laser Ablation of an Ectopic Ureterocele in a Female Dog

ABSTRACT An intact female dog was examined for urinary incontinence. A right-sided ectopic ureterocele with bilateral hydroureter and pyelectasis was diagnosed via ultrasonography, with concurrent complicated urinary tract infection. Following a course of antibiotics, cystoscopic-guided laser ablation was performed, and the dog remained continent at 3 mo follow-up. Cystoscopic-guided laser ablation provides a minimally invasive alternative to open surgery and is the treatment of choice in humans, and this case report demonstrates it is feasible in canine patients.

A 7-month-old, female English cocker spaniel was examined because of a complaint of urinary incontinence. Excretory urography revealed a small right kidney and right-sided hydroureter, ectopic ureter, and ureterocele. Ureteronephrectomy and ovariohysterectomy were performed, but the distal ureter and ureterocele were left in situ. Recurrent urinary tract infections and intermittent urinary incontinence persisted after surgery. Vaginourethrography demonstrated the presence of a urethral diverticulum associated with the ureterocele. Ureterocelectomy was performed, and the dog remains continent 4 years after ureterocelectomy. Persistent urinary incontinence and urinary tract infection were attributed to failure to resect the ureterocele.

Carbapenem Resistant

Colistin is considered one of the last available therapeutic options to treat infections caused by carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP).However, with an increase in the use of colistin to treat CRKP infections, colistin resistance is emerging and there are no standard treatment regimensfor these type of infections. In the present case report, we are discussing a case of 64-year-old male patient having complicated urinary tract infection(cUTI) by CRKP, treated successfully with ceftriaxone+sulbactam+EDTA (CSE-1034) and carbapenem combination therapy. Conclusively, CSE-1034 incombination with or without carbapenems could be a successful therapeutic option for the treatment of CRKP cUTI cases.
