Key Points

The aim is to evaluate the complications and outcomes of a surgical technique for intramural ureteral ectopia in dogs.
Conducted surgery on 25 dogs using cystoscopic-guided scissor transection.
Evaluated continence scores before and after the procedure.
Monitored for complications post-surgery.
Significant improvement in continence scores observed after surgery.
Low complication rates associated with the procedure.
The scissor transection method is found to be a successful alternative to laser surgery.

Implication

Cystoscopic-guided surgery improves continence in dogs with ectopic ureters, suggesting effective intervention.

Abstract

Cystoscopic-guided scissor transection of intramural ectopic ureters significantly improved continence scores with low complication rates. This method is a successful alternative to the laser alternative.
