title: Suture-related urolithiasis following repair of inadvertent prostatectomy in a dog.
abstract: A 10-month-old male chow chow mixed breed dog was presented for anuria secondary to inadvertent prostatectomy performed during unilateral cryptorchidectomy. Surgical repair was successfully performed; however, this resulted in suture-associated urolith formation 3 months later, requiring a second surgical intervention and urethrostomy.
