Urolithiasis is the third most prevalent disease of the urinary tract of dogs and cats, and is characterized by presence of crystals and / or formation of stones. The present study objective was to report the confirmation rate of suspected cases of urolithiasis in dogs and cats treated at veterinary clinics in the city of Santarém, Pará. A retrospective cohort study was carried out from the database of medical records from six veterinary clinics from the years 2012 to 2023. Dogs and cats were evaluated for clinical suspicion, species, age, breed, feeding type, diagnosis, location of the urolith and type of urolith. As the data did not present a normal distribution, they were submitted to the Chi-square test and Fisher's exact test. The analyses were performed using Statistical Analysis Software (SAS), considering a 5% significance level. Of the 532 files analyzed of suspected cases, 353 were confirmed. The percentage of cases in cats (72.23%) was higher than in dogs (55.37%). The age range between 2 and 5 years was the period when it had more confirmed cases and most of the uroliths were found in the urinary vesicle, both in dogs and cats. It was concluded that there was a high index of confirmed cases of urolithiasis in dogs and cats, being superior in this last species. In addition, in both species are more affected animals between 2 and 5 years of age, being more common the location of uroliths in the bladder.
尿石症是犬猫泌尿系统中第三大常见疾病，其特征是存在晶体和/或结石形成。本研究的目的是报告在帕拉州圣塔伦市兽医诊所接受治疗的疑似犬猫尿石症病例的确诊率。我们从2012年至2023年六家兽医诊所的病历数据库中进行了一项回顾性队列研究。对犬猫进行了临床疑似情况、物种、年龄、品种、喂养类型、诊断、尿石位置和尿石类型的评估。由于数据不呈正态分布，因此对其进行了卡方检验和费舍尔精确检验。使用统计分析软件（SAS）进行分析，显著性水平为5%。在分析的532份疑似病例档案中，有353例得到确诊。猫的病例百分比（72.23%）高于犬（55.37%）。2至5岁的年龄范围是确诊病例最多的时期，犬猫的大多数尿石都发现于膀胱。结论是，犬猫尿石症确诊病例的指数较高，猫的这一指数更高。此外，在这两个物种中，2至5岁的动物受影响更大，尿石在膀胱中的位置更为常见。
