| description | Urolithiasis a common urinary problem in dogs and cats. The objective of this
study was to evaluate epidemiological data derived from a referral center in Malaysia
over 10 years (2007 – 2016). Urolith analysis results of dogs and catspertaining to their
respective urolith type and composition, were evaluated and compared with breed, age,
sex, neuter status, body condition score, urine pH and anatomical location.
Out of 1086 uroliths analyzed, 90.4% were from dogs and 9.6% from cats.
Majority of uroliths from dogs and cats (89.8% and 92.2%, respectively) were from the
lower urinary tract. Struvite (61.1%) was most commonly found in dogs and calcium oxalate (CaOx) (51.9%) in cats. The average age of dogs and cats were 5.8 years for
struvite and 7.6 years for CaOx. Dogs were 2.7x more likely to develop struvite than
cats and cats were 2.4x more likely to develop CaOx than dogs. Bitches were 11.9x
more likely to develop struvite than males. Meanwhile, toms were 1.5x more likely to
develop CaOx than queens.Most common dog and cat breeds associated with struvite
and CaOx were Shih Tzu, mixed-breed dogs, Miniature Schnauzers, Domestic
Shorthair, Persians and mixed-breed cats. This is the first epidemiological study of
uroliths in Malaysia, with significant differences in urolith occurrence between dogs and
cats. This baseline data can be useful for further investigative studies towards species
specific management of urolithiasis. |
