Abstract

A study on Electron Microscopy of the uroliths was conducted in 9 clinical cases in dogs. Analysis of the calculi revealed calcium oxalate calculi in 55.56 per cent of the dogs, magnesium ammonium phosphate calculi in 33.33 per cent and calcium oxalate plus urate calculi in 11.11 per cent of the dogs. Scanning electron microscopy revealed bar shaped crystals in calcium oxalate calculi, rock like crystals in magnesium ammonium phosphate calculi and spindle shaped crystals in calcium oxalate plus urate calculi.
