This study aimed to investigate the clinical, laboratory, radiography and ultrasonography findings for diagnosis of urolithiasis in cats and dogs. This study was consisted of totally 17 animals, of those, 7 cats and 11 dogs were different ages, breeds and sex. Urolithiasis diagnosis was made through urine analysis, direct and indirect radiography and ultrasonographic findings. Radiopaque stones were detected in the bladder (n=13), only in the urethra (n=2), and both in the urethra and bladder (n=2). Urethrotomy was performed in two animals with urolith in the urethra, and cystotomy was performed in two cases by pushing the stones in the urethra into the urinary bladder with uroretropropulsion. In other cases, uroliths were removed from the bladder by cystotomy. The uroliths were analyzed by biochemical method. The results of the present study revealed that clinical, hematological, biochemical, urinalysis, radiographic, and ultrasonographic examinations are essential in dogs and cats for the accurate diagnosis of urolithiasis.
