Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of percutaneous suprapubic cystostomies performed by the interventional radiologist for complex urologic cases.
Materials And Methods: A retrospective analysis was done of the 25 cases referred to the radiology department for suprapubic cystostomies. The patients were referred because of unsuccessful placement or malposition of a suprapubic cystostomy tube. The procedure was performed with the Seldinger technique by using a 21-gauge needle for initial antegrade puncture and subsequent tract dilation and placement of 10-24-F catheters.
Results: In 24 of 25 cases (96%) the suprapubic cystostomy was successfully performed. After suprapubic cystostomy, eight patients (32%) underwent additional ancillary procedures by urologists through the suprapubic tract. The only major complication was perivesical fluid collection in one patient (4%), which was subsequently drained. Seventeen patients (68%) had transient hematuria.
Conclusion: Percutaneous suprapubic cystostomy performed under fluoroscopic control is an effective and safe procedure ideally suited for the interventional radiologist, especially in complex urologic cases.

Background: Functional outflow tract obstruction (FOO) remains a challenging disease to manage in male dogs. Cystostomy tubes have been used to relieve urethral obstruction while allowing time to achieve effective medical management, avoiding the need for emergency visits and repeat urinary catheterizations.
Objectives: To describe a series of dogs with FOO and categorize the most successful management strategies including medical management alone or with the support of cystostomy tubes for urinary diversion.
