Ureteropyelonephritis in a Friesian mare

MM Sloet van Oldruitenborgh-Oosterbaan and HC Kalsbeek

Clinic for Large Animal Medicine, Veterinary Faculty, University of Utrecht, The Netherlands.

A 14-year-old Friesian breeding mare had strangury, depression, inappetence, neutrophilia and uraemia. Its urine had a low specific gravity and contained protein, blood cells and bacteria. Rectal examination showed that both kidneys and ureters were enlarged. Post mortem examination confirmed the diagnosis of pyelonephritis and revealed that small tumours in the vulva were probably the cause of the uropathy.
