Abstract: Bladder calculi and pyometra are common clinical cases of pets with high morbidity. Dog calculi is a stone in the urinary system due to various reasons. Dog stones include kidney, ureter, bladder and urethral stones, among which bladder and urethral calculi are the most common especially. A stone can cause a pet to urinate badly, no urine, abdominal pain, and severe urine leakage in the abdominal cavity, causing peritonitis. Pyometra is due to endometrial hyperplasia, the existence of a purulent material in the uterus accumulation of fluid. It is easy to increase the incidence rate and mortality rate of pyometra after uterus infection. However, there is only few cases when both bladder calculi and pyometra occur in one dog. This report followed up cases of 8-year-old pekingese and 7-year-old poodles suffering both from bladder calculi and pyometra. After clinical diagnosis, such as blood routine examination, biochemical examination, X-ray examination and b-mode ultrasound examination, they were finally diagnosed as the complication of bladder calculi and pyometra. Two cases had bladder calculi removed and uterus removed by surgery. Through drug treatment and postoperative care, spirit of the wound recovered with normal eating and micturition recovery after a week. The stitches were removed 10 days later and the wound healed well. After the clinical symptoms of the disease were analyzed, the systematic research report on the professional clinical examination, detailed treatment and nursing can provide clinical reference for the treatment of bladder calculi and uterus suppurative disease.
