Abstract

The cases of urolithiasis in caprines presented at the Polyclinic, of NRI, Izatnagar from

cases, their clinical examination, urinalysis, haematobiochemical profile and acid base status
was studied. The cases were surgically managed by performing excision of urethral process,
urethrotomy followed by fixation of polyethylene catheter in the urethra and cystorrhaphy as
