- Abstract
- A 4-year-old gelding was referred to the clinic with a history of haematuria and stranguria after exercise. Transrectal examination and endoscopy of the urinary bladder revealed the presence of a cystolith. The patient underwent general anaesthesia to remove the bladder stone through a para-inguinal approach. A layer of calcium carbonate was found covering a foreign body acting as the nidus of the urolith. The foreign body was a 4 x 3 cm rubber tie of unknown origin. Surgery and recovery were uneventful without recurrence of clinical signs for up to 2 years after surgery. This is the first published report describing a laparocystotomy for removal of a cystolith secondary to an intravesical foreign body in a gelding. Migration of a foreign body into the urinary bladder, although very uncommon, is possible.
