| dc.description.abstract | A 4 month old female Wheaton Terrier, presented to Cornell's Small Animal Soft Tissue Service for laser ablation of an ectopic ureter. The dog was first seen by the Small Animal Internal Medicine Service for the evaluation of intermittent urine dribbling. Baseline blood work, urinalysis, urine culture, and an ultrasound were performed at that time. All the results were within normal limits and the abdominal ultrasound did not reveal any other structural abnormalities. A cystoscopy was performed, which revealed a bilateral ectopic ureter. It was decided to wait 2-3 months before the definitive correction because her urethra was too small to perform laser ablation safely. The patient represented to the Soft Tissue Surgery Service 2 months later to proceed with a laser ablation of the ectopic ureter. Cystoscopy revealed a paramesonephric remnant and a left sided ectopic ureter that inserted distal to the urethral vestibular junction, both of which were corrected with laser ablation. The patient recovered from anesthesia uneventfully was discharged the following day with a course of amoxicillin/clavulanic acid and meloxicam. | en_US |
