  • Title: Delayed-onset urinary incontinence in five female dogs with ectopic ureters.
    Author: Thomas PC, Yool DA.
    Journal: J Small Anim Pract; 2010 Apr; 51(4):224-6. PubMed ID: 20214729.
    Abstract:
    This case series describes five female dogs with congenital ectopic ureter presenting with delayed-onset urinary incontinence out of 22 female dogs diagnosed with ectopic ureter over a 102-month period at a veterinary teaching hospital. All five dogs improved following surgical treatment of ectopic ureter, but only three remained continent long-term without further intervention. Delayed-onset urinary incontinence in female dogs with ectopic ureters may be more common than the current literature suggests. Congenital ectopic ureter should be considered and investigated as a possible contributing factor in female dogs presenting with delayed-onset urinary incontinence.
