Urethral entrapment by an overlapping dislocation of the pubic symphysis in a cat.
JFMS Open Reports 2024
CASE SUMMARY: A 1-year-old neutered male domestic shorthair cat was referred with suspected uroperitoneum. Ultrasonography showed peritoneal effusion. CT further revealed a bilateral sacroiliac joint disruption associated with an overlapped dislocation of the pubic symphysis, resulting in an abnormal trajectory of the urethra with extramural urethral compression. An open reduction and internal fixation of the pubis with correction of the urethral trajectory was performed under general anaesthesia. The uroperitoneum was determined to originate from a cystocentesis.
RELEVANCE AND NOVEL INFORMATION: This report describes an unusual case of urethral obstruction secondary to overlapping dislocation of the pubic symphysis with urethral entrapment and concurrent bilateral sacroiliac luxation. To the authors' knowledge, acute urethral obstruction owing to fractures of the pubis, without urethral laceration, has never been described.
