Abstract
There are significant anatomical and physiological differences between the urogenital system of reptiles and that of other vertebrates. Understanding these differences and the abnormalities that can occur is essential for proper management of reptilian patients with urogenital disorders. This chapter covers the renal system, urinary bladder and reproductive tract.
