Abstract
An eight-year-old male Australian cattle dog cross was presented with complete urethral obstruction secondary to fracture of the os penis wh ich had occurred two years earlier. Obstruction was associated with ca llus and fibrous tissue proliferation compressing the urethra at the f racture site. The problem was satisfactorily resolved by removing exce ss bone and fibrous tissue and stabilising the fracture with a stainle ss steel finger plate.
