Of the cats that were dead at follow up, death occurred a median of 450 days post-operatively (range 15-2332 days).

    Document: Long-term follow up was available for 87 cats (74%). Of those, 48 (55%) were alive, and 39 (45%) were dead. Of the cats that were dead at follow up, death occurred a median of 450 days post-operatively (range 15-2332 days). Death was attributed to progressive chronic renal failure in 25 cats (64%), ureteral re-obstruction in seven cats (18%), and disease processes unrelated to the urinary tract in five cats (13%). An unknown cause of death was assigned to the remaining 2 (5.1%) deceased cats. For the cats that were alive at follow up, the median interval between surgery and follow up was 543 days (range 65-5000 days). Of the cats for which long-term follow up was available, 19 (22%) suffered from ureteral re-obstruction, 17 (20%) had chronic lower urinary tract signs, 12 (14%) had urinary tract infections, and 2 (2%) had stent encrustation.
