摘要

A 7 year old torn cat weighing 3.5 kgswas brought with history of partial urinary obstruction due to hard scrotal swelling pressing the penis. Perinealurethrostomy was done under general anaesthesia using Acepromazine, Ketamine and Isoflurane. The urethra was catheterized with a torn catheter and the swollen scrotum along with testicles was removed. After proper dissection ofpenile urethra, the penis was severed dorsally up-to the extent of bulbourethral glands and the urethral mucosa was sutured with the skin. On follow up, the cat showed complete recovery for upto 6 month follow up.
