A Case of Congenital Rectourethral Fistula, Urethral Dilatation and Segmental Urethral Agenesis Encountered in a Calf
Abstract
The purpose of this case presentation is to describe multiple urogenital system anomalies in a calf. The case was
a month old male Simmental calf that was brought to the clinic with a problem of progressive congenital swelling between
the perianal and scrotal area. Clinical examination revealed that the swelling was quite large and tight in tendency. A
rectourethral fistula was identified during examination of anus by speculum. Ultrasonographic examination of swelling was
composed of a luminal structure. Upon puncture of the structure, a blurry liquid content with a foul smell came out.
Surgery was performed under intrathecal anesthesia. The mass was clearly distinguishable from surrounding tissue starting
from arcus ischiadicus to postscrotal level and it was also very tight. Mass totally removed to include a part intact penile
tissue in the proximal and distal, and it was made to uretrostomi in proksimal. Nothing was performed on rectourethral
fistula. A week long temporary catheter was used for urethra. At the end of the surgery it was observed that urine was
continuously coming out of catheter. In macroscopic assessment of the mass, urethra was opening out to the mass in
proximal, while there was no urethral opening in distal. Histopathological examination revealed that the urethral structure
was composed of single layer of epithelial cells. In conclusion, this case of rectourethral fistula along with mega urethral
dilatation and segmental urethral agenesis was found to be worth of description to contribute to the literature.
