Vivi has urate stones lodged in both kidneys....they are directly related to her liver shunt and even if removed would come back....she can't have surgery because the anesthesia would kill her....this is due to high pressure in her liver caused by the underdeveloped blood vessels....all of this is due to the liver shunt.....this is such an ugly disease and it is becoming an epidemic in Yorkies, I pray that a way to prevent this is discovered soon so that other yorkies won't suffer.
