A nine year retrospective study of hematuria in 14 New Zealand White rabbits was conducted to classify possible etiologies of this clinical finding. Physical examination, laboratory tests, radiography and postmortem examination were utilized in most cases to verify the presence of hematuria and to determine its etiology. Uterine adenocarcinoma was diagnosed in two rabbits. Three rabbits had uterine polyps with hemorrhage. Renal infarction with hemorrhage was diagnosed in three rabbits. Urolithiasis with secondary urethral obstruction and hemorrhagic cystitis was identified as the cause of hematuria in four rabbits. Other causes of hematuria included chronic cystitis, disseminated intravascular coagulation, bladder polyps and pyelonephritis. Hematuria of undetermined origin was observed in one rabbit. This last [corrected] case was negative for both blood and porphyrin in the urine, but positive for excess levels of urobilin, the oxidative product of urobilinogen. This case illustrates that hyperpigmented urine should be a rule out in all cases of suspected hematuria in rabbits.

We present a casuistic revision of adrenal pathology, which was studied in our service during the period January 1977-July 2000. We reviewed 59.069 biopsies and 2.674 autopsies and we 84 cases. founded with the following findings: Primary tumors 25% Secundary tumors 51% Infectious diseases 11% Miscellaneous 12% Unsuitable for diagnosis 1% Hyperplasias, adenomas, pheochromocy-tomas, neuroblastoma, adenocarcinoma are included within primary tumors. The metastasic tumors corresponded to: lung, pancreas, mammary gland, kidney and carcinomas; endometrial adenocarcinoma, lymphoma, melanoma, hepatocarcinoma, gastric carcinoma, testicular teratocarcinoma, skin epidermoid carcinoma, uterus choriocarcinoma and a primary germinal tumor of the thymus. Within infectious diseases we founded tuberculosis, histoplasmosis, cryptococosis, hydatidosis. Miscellaneous included hematoma, hemorrhage, pseudocyst, Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation (DIC), athrophy, Wegener's granulomatosis, myelolipoma, hemorrhagic necrosis. There was only one case which was unsuitable for diagnosis due to insufficient material.
