Emphysematous cystitis is caused by gas-producing bacteria that accumulate between the layers of the urinary vesicle wall or within the lumen, commonly associated with diabetes mellitus due to glucose fermentation and less frequently due to hyperadrenocorticism and diverticula in the urinary vesicle. Complementary exams are important in elucidating the diagnosis, with radiographic and ultrasound examinations being sensitive and specific. The reported case is of an animal with a history of recurrent urolithiasis who presented dysuria and hematuria who was referred for ultrasound assessment that was not sufficient for diagnosis, opting for simple radiographic examination and cystography, confirming cystitis demonstrating the importance of performing tests complementary to promote a correct diagnosis and treatment.Acesso AbertoMedicina VeterináriaCistiteDiabetes mellitusRadiografiaUltrassonografiaCNPQ::CIENCIAS AGRARIASArtigo de Evento
