| ABSTRACT: The primary hyperaldosteronism, an endocrine disease increasingly identified in cats, is characterized by adrenal gland dysfunction that interferes with the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, triggering the hypersecretion of aldosterone. Pathophysiological consequences of excessive aldosterone secretion are related to increased sodium and water retention, and increased excretion of potassium, which induce hypertension and severe hypokalemia, respectively. The most common clinical findings in cats include: polydipsia, nocturia, polyuria, generalized weakness, neck ventroflexion, syncope, anorexia, weight loss, pendulous abdomen and blindness. Diagnosis is based on the evidence of hormonal hypersecretion with suppression of renin release,... |

| Urethral obstruction in felines is a common and routine etiology for clinicians and surgeons. The condition can occur for several reasons, but in general leads to serious renal and hydroelectrolytic disorders, that when not quickly reversed caused the death of the patient. This article brings an option to approach these feline patients with urethral obstruction, as well as options for emergency treatment and urethral clearance. |
