Article Synopsis
  • The study analyzed medical records of 585 cats and dogs with histories of vehicular trauma or falls to find occurrences of lower urinary tract (LUT) ruptures.
  • The overall prevalence of LUT rupture was 1.36%, with 1.2% in dogs and 1.4% in cats; the bladder was the most common site affected.
  • Notably, while pelvic fractures were linked to increased LUT rupture risk, some cases occurred without such injuries, indicating that urinary tract damage should be considered in any trauma patient, regardless of fracture presence or urination ability.
