A 2-year-old quarter horse gelding presented for evaluation of polyuria and polydipsia. Azotemia was detected on serum chemistry profile. Small, misshapen, hyperechoic kidneys with decreased corticomedullary demarcation, hydronephrosis, and a right nephrolith were noted ultrasonographically. The diagnosis of end-stage kidney disease and dysplasia was made histopathologically using ultrasound-guided biopsy. Two ureteroliths were found in the right ureter via cystoscopy, and a nephrolith was seen in the right kidney at necropsy. Clinical, ultrasonographic, and pathologic features of equine urolithiasis and renal dysplasia are discussed.
一匹2岁的夸特马 gelding 因多尿和多饮前来评估。血清化学检查发现氮质血症。超声检查发现肾脏体积小、形态异常、回声增强,皮髓质分界不清,肾积水,右侧肾结石。通过超声引导下活检进行组织病理学诊断,确诊为终末期肾病和发育异常。通过膀胱镜检查在右侧输尿管发现两颗输尿管结石,尸检时在右肾发现一颗肾结石。本文讨论了马尿石症和肾发育异常的临床、超声和病理特征。
