139 Lower Urinary Tract Surgery

139 Lower Urinary Tract Surgery

Author: The Royal Veterinary College December 8, 2023 Duration: 38:45

Joining Brian and myself in our studio (yes that is right we are back) we are delighted to speak to Lynda Rutherford, Senior Lecturer in Soft Tissue Surgery and Head of Soft Tissue Surgery here at the RVC. I thought we’d continue the theme of the last podcast on feline urethral obstruction and speak to a surgeon about this subject, really what you can do if you can’t place a urethral catheter (is there a stone that you can’t hydro-pulse, unlikely) but maybe there is a urethral tear (traumatic or iatrogenic). Lynda kindly spoke to us about BOAS previously and it is always good to catch up.  Lynda gave a talk to the hospital about on this topic and thought it would be good to share with a wider audience, we hope that you enjoy.
