    Document: One hundred and seventeen cats were included in the study. The majority (89 cats, 76%) were Domestic Short Hair cats. The median age at the time of surgery was 8 years (range 1-17 years), and the median weight was 4.4 kg (range 2-7.5 kg). Cases were evenly distributed between the sexes, with 57 (49%) females and 60 (51%) males. Ureterotomy was performed in 72 (62%) cats and neoureterocystostomy in 12 (10%) cats. Forty-two cats (37%) had a ureteral stent placed. Perioperative complications related to the urinary tract were identified in 10 cases (8.5%) including uroabdomen (eight cats) and stent migration (two cats). The perioperative mortality rate was 8.5%, with the majority of deaths (7/10) attributable to progressive renal failure. The median duration of hospitalization was 6 days (range 2-19 days).
