Case Description- Hypospadias and testicular agenesis were described in this clinical report in two German shepherd puppies presented with a history of lethargy, anorexia, dysuria, urinary incontinence, severe urine scald dermatitis and pyoderma in the abdominal area. Clinical Findings- Clinical examinations revealed incomplete development of the external genitalia including penile and preputial hypoplasia with lack of preputial sheath at the penis tip. Moreover, both testes were not found on clinical examination and ultrasonography of one case while another dog had unilateral testicular agenesis. Treatment and Outcome- One of the puppies died before any other diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. Resection of penile and preputial remnants combined with prescrotal urethrostomy was done on the other puppy. Clinical Relevance- One of the considerable issues in dog breeding is abnormalities of the external genitalia. Hypospadias and testicular agenesis are rare reproductive disorders which have probably congenital origin. The importance of elimination of affected dogs from reproductive programs should be emphasized by veterinary practitioners. |
