Abstract

A 5-month-old male Shih Tzu was diagnosed with a lateral ectopic ureter. The disorder was surgically treated; however, the dog’s urinary incontinence was not resolved. Several subsequent medical therapies were ineffective. Therefore, cellophane tape banding was applied around the dilated urethra 2 months postoperatively. After this surgery, the urinary incontinence completely disappeared and had not recurred at the time of this writing. However, an asymptomatic cystic diverticulum was found 1 month after cellophane tape banding. This method might be a therapeutic option for repairing urethral dilatation.
