Urolithiasis in Buffalo Calf

Abstract

Nine months old calf was died and brought for postmortem examination at College of Veterinary Science, Rajendranagar, Hyderabad. After opening of the carcass, peritoneum was filled with straw coloured and foul-smelling fluid. All organs were severely congested but the kidneys were edematous with dilated pelvis. Uroperitoneum was observed because of rupture of urinary bladder. The mucosa of bladder was showing streaks of haemorrhages, ulcers and hematoma. Urethra was fibrosed and showed liths in the lumen. Based on the examination it was confirmed as urolithiasis.
