Feline lower urinary tract disorders. Definition of terms and concepts

C A Osborne et al. Vet Clin North Am Small Anim Pract. 1996 Mar.

Abstract

Lower urinary tract disorders of male and female cats may be caused by a variety of fundamentally different causes. The term Feline urologic syndrome should be abandoned and substituted with descriptive etiopathogenic terms whenever possible. If the underlying cause cannot be identified, the term Idiopathic lower urinary tract disease is recommended.
