Bilateral Pyelonephritis in a Cat with Multiple Urinary Malformations Including Ureteral Pseudodiverticulosis

Abstract

ABSTRACT Ureteral pseudodiverticulosis is an unusual acquired abnormality in humans and dogs. This report describes the first feline case of ureteral pseudodiverticulosis, associated with right retrocaval ureter and malposition of the uretero-vesical junctions, in the context of pyelonephritis. The coexistence of pseudodiverticulosis with other urinary abnormalities suggested that this lesion should be considered in other patients with urinary pathology.
