A continence score (1\u2009=\u2009incontinent, 2\u2009=\u2009sporadic incontinence, 3\u2009=\u2009continent) was attributed preoperatively, at discharge, 1 month postoperatively, and at long\u2010term evaluation.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Twenty\u2010eight dogs had unilateral and 19 dogs had bilateral EU (57 intramural and 9 extramural). Nineteen dogs had a pelvic bladder. Neoureterostomy with dissection (n\u2009=\u200950), ureteroneocystotomy (n\u2009=\u20099), or nephroureterectomy (n\u2009=\u20097) were performed. Thirty\u2010three dogs were neutered: 32 before or during the surgery and 1 after surgery. Colposuspension was performed during surgical correction in 15 dogs. Adjuvant medical treatment improved postoperative continence scores. Median continence scores were greater at discharge (3), at 1 month postoperatively (3), and at long\u2010term evaluation (3) than before surgery (1). At long\u2010term evaluation (mean 46.1 months), a score of 1 was observed in 19%, a score of 2 in 7%, and a score of 3 in 74% of the dogs.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Overall, good (score 2) to excellent (score 3) long\u2010term outcome was achieved in 81% of dogs.
