Plain-English summary
A dog was brought in with blood in its urine, which was found to be caused by a benign tumor called a ureteral fibroepithelial polyp. After diagnosing the issue, the veterinarian performed a surgery to remove the affected kidney and ureter, which resolved the dog's symptoms completely. The dog is now healthy and no longer shows signs of blood in its urine.
