ABSTRACT
Moaddab SH, Siavosh Haghighi ZM, Tavanaeimanesh H.,
Urinary bladder displacement due to abdominal distention and straining in
mares, Onl J Vet Res., 20(10):673-678, 2016. Displacement
of the urinary bladder in mares is a rare cause of dysuria. Displacement can
occur by extrusion through a tear in the floor of the vagina or true prolapse
with eversion of the bladder into the vestibule. Displacements are typically a
consequence of repeated abdominal contractions or straining and are mostly
associated with by excessive involuntary straining during or after parturition, dystocia, colic due to small colon
obstructions, rectal prolapsed and vaginitis, or perineal lacerations occurring
during foaling. History, clinical signs and outcomes of 4 cases of bladder
displacement with uterine torsion, colonic torsion, small colon foreign body
and vaginal tear are described.
Key words: Urinary bladder, Eversion, rupture, straining, mare.
