Summary: | Ureteral ectopia is a congenital abnormality of the genito-urinary tract disorder characterized by the insertion of the ureter in the urinary bladder, the most common cause of urinary incontinence in young dogs, occurring predominantly in female animals. Anatomically it is classified as intramural or extramural. In the intramural ureter is attached to the dorsal surface of the urinary bladder, but has failed to culminate in the trigone, while the extramural there is a deviation in full bladder and can occur in both cases unilaterally or bilaterally. The main clinical signs include addition of urinary incontinence, vulvar eczema with hyperpigmentation, hypotrichosis and dermatitis in perivulvar region, hematuria, pyuria and recurrent cystitis. The objective of this article report the case of a bitch pinscher breed, 8 months old, attended at the Veterinary Hospital of UFPI, diagnosed and treated for ureteral ectopia with megaureter and acquired hydronephrosis.
A ectopia ureteral é uma anomalia congênita do trato genito-urinário caracterizado por um distúrbio na inserção do ureter na vesícula urinária, sendo a causa mais comum de incontinência urinária em cães jovens, ocorrendo predominantemente em animais do sexo feminino. Anatomicamente é classificada como intramural ou extramural. Na intramural o ureter se anexa na superfície dorsal vesícula urinária, porém há falha ao desembocar no trígono vesical, enquanto que na extramural ocorre um desvio por completo da bexiga, podendo ocorrer em ambos os casos de forma unilateral ou bilateral. Os principais sinais clínicos incluem além da incontinência urinária, o eczema vulvar com hiperpigmentação, hipotricose e dermatite na região perivulvar, hematúria, piúria e cistites recorrentes. Objetivou neste artigo relatar o caso clínico de uma cadela da raça pinscher, 8 meses de idade, atendida no Hospital Veterinário da UFPI, diagnosticada e tratada para ectopia ureteral com megaureter e hidronefrose adquirida. |
