- Abstract
Rupture of the urinary bladder is rare in adult horses with various standing or recumbent surgical repair techniques historically reported as the treatments of choice. This case series describes the successful conservative management of cystorrhexis in 4 adult horses. Conservative management is therefore a potentially viable treatment option which forgoes the risks of general anaesthesia and may reduce the post operative complications associated with surgery of the bladder.
