A rare case of bilateral, primary, obstructive, giant megaureter was found during necropsy examination of an 11-year-old female German shepherd dog. On ultrasound examination and at necropsy examination, both ureters were tortuous and extensively dilated with diameter ranging from 1.86 to 4.8 cm. Both vesicoureteral junctions were obstructed by uroliths. A diagnosis of giant megaureter was established using human parameters since these values are not recognized in animals. The classification of obstructive and primary megaureter was determined because the obstruction was due to uroliths at the vesicoureteral junctions.
在对一只11岁雌性德国牧羊犬进行尸检时，发现了一例罕见的双侧原发性梗阻性巨大输尿管病例。超声检查和尸检时，双侧输尿管均迂曲且广泛扩张，直径在1.86至4.8厘米之间。双侧膀胱输尿管连接处均被尿路结石阻塞。由于动物中不存在这些数值，因此使用人类参数建立了巨大输尿管的诊断。由于梗阻是由膀胱输尿管连接处的尿路结石引起的，因此确定了梗阻性和原发性巨大输尿管的分类。
