Urologic Disease in Dogs and Cats

Current diagnostic, therapeutic, and surgical guidance for canine and feline urology

Urologic Diseases of the Dog and Cat is a dedicated urology text that unites diagnostic, medical, and surgical content in a single volume to support informed clinical decisions across the full scope of canine and feline urology. The text includes focused coverage of cystitis, urinary tract infection, urolithiasis, incontinence, bladder and prostate oncology alongside the anatomical and physiological differences between canine and feline patients that influence clinical decision-making.

Beyond core disease chapters, the book details diagnostic imaging methods, surgical techniques, and therapeutic protocols for a range of pathogeneses encountered in small animal practice. Clinical cases illustrate key principles, while figures, radiographs, and histologic images reinforce pattern recognition and procedural understanding. Each section balances the underlying science with actionable clinical information for daily use.

Readers will also find:

• Species-specific anatomical and physiological comparisons between dogs and cats relevant to urologic assessment and treatment planning
• Step-by-step surgical approaches for common urologic procedures supported by detailed illustrations and clinical case discussions
• Radiographic and histologic image sets that strengthen diagnostic accuracy across a spectrum of urologic pathologies in small animals
• Guidance on selecting and interpreting contemporary diagnostic methods for lower and upper urinary tract disease in practice
• Therapeutic decision frameworks addressing pharmacologic, dietary, and interventional management options for recurring urologic conditions

Designed for veterinary surgeons, this text also serves practicing veterinarians seeking current urologic references and students or researchers building specialized knowledge.
