TI  - Outcome of preputioplasty in cats with acquired phimosis: 8 cases
AB  - Preputioplasty is a surgical procedure performed to increase the orifice diameter. This study was aimed to describe the clinical outcome of eight feline acquired phimosis that underwent preputiop- lasty. History, age, breed, body weight, urine and blood analysis, radiographic, ultrasonographic and clinical findings at the time of diagnosis were recorded and collected. Surgical procedures in cats were completed without any complications except for one cat, which had post-operative stricture formation. Normal urination was observed following surgeries in all cases. This cat required perineal urethrostomy surgery. In conclusion, preputioplasty was performed successfully in 7 of 8 cats. The outcome of preputioplasty in cats was good, except for one case that needs a second surgery due to a stricture subsequently formed. Future studies with larger case numbers are needed to confirm our findings.
