A subcutaneous ureteral bypass (SUB) was placed in a 10-year-old Birman cat for management of unilateral ureterolithiasis. Perioperative occlusion of the nephrostomy tube of the SUB device happened secondary to a severe
pyonephrosis
.
Flushing
of the system throught the subcutaneous shunting port was made with saline solution after clamping the urinary bladder catheter. Repetitive
flushing
of the device was performed daily for 3 days to be sure of the remanent patency of the catheter. Repetitive
flushing
of the SUB device is a successful renal-sparing treatment for
pyonephrosis
in a cat and may be considered as an effective treatment option for this condition.
