Abstract

A 7-year-old crossbreed mare presented with mild to moderate colic and a 2-day history of anuria. Clinicopathologicalfndings revealed leukocytosis with mild neutrophilia and lymphocytosis. Urinalysis showed increased leukocytes, epithelial cells, andprotein. Biochemical analysis revealed mild azotemia and hypoglycemia. Ultrasonographically, the urethra was completely blocked byechoic material. Te wall of the urethra was hyperechoic and easy to distinguish from the urethralis muscle surrounding it. Te urinarybladder was distended, with a rough, thick wall (9 mm). To the best of the author s knowledge, the present report is the frst to describedetailed ultrasonographic and clinicopathological fndings in a mare with urine retention.
