Clinical, ultrasonographic, and postmortem findings in sheep and goats with urinary tract disorders

Abstract: Background and Aim: In sheep and goats, most urinary disorders are incidental findings at the postmortem examination and do not present clinically. As such, the diagnosis of renal diseases in sheep and goats can be overlooked. Therefore, this study was carried out on sheep and goats to describe the clinical, ultrasonography (USG), and postmortem findings of various disorders affecting the urinary tract. Materials and Methods: A total of 58 animals (30 sheep and 28 goats) were examined, as well as were ten hea… Show more

“…Ultrasound of the kidneys, urethra, urinary bladder, and the ventral abdomen is evaluated in longitudinal and cross-sectional planes, starting at the xyphoid, moving caudally, and ending in the inguinal region to determine if free fluid is present in the abdomen. 17 The presence of free fluid can be indicative of a uroabdomen secondary to bladder rupture or tearing. In cases where the urinary bladder is injured (hemorrhagic, congested, or necrotic), a small volume of free fluid may be noted in the caudal abdomen.…”

“…The kidneys can be examined in longitudinal and cross-sectional planes. 17 The last two intercostal spaces and the region immediately caudal to the last rib are scanned on the right side to evaluate the right kidney. 17 The left kidney can be identified caudal to the right kidney in the right, dorsal paralumbar fossa.…”
