Abstract
A new urinary-diversion technique was performed to bypass a Stenotic portion of the urethra of a 9-year-old bitch. The urethra, resected in the pelvic visceral cavity, was led outside the abdominal cavity at the forward edge of the prepubis. The urethra was then passed through the ventral side of the pubic symphysis, and its cut end was directed towards the vagina. Finally, it was passed into the vagina, where a new urethral meatus was created in the vaginal floor. Post-surgical continence was maintained, and no complications were associ-ated with the procedure.
