Growth 1- Supersaturation of the mineral within the urine A. Nidus must stay in the urinary tract precipitates out and forms salts A. High dietary intake B. Concentrated urine (reduced water intake) B. Supersaturation and precipitation must continue. C. Decreased tubular absorption 2- Favorable pH for crystallisation (depends on minerals) 3- Others: infection, structural abnormalities, foreign bodies, drugs ⑭ The common sites of urethral impaction: 1. Ruminants: the sigmoid flexure 2. Rams: The vermiform appendage 3.
