- Bladder stone (animal) - Bladder stones or uroliths are a common occurrence in animals, especially in domestic animals such as dogs and cats. The stones form in the urinary bladder in varying size and numbers secondary to infection, dietary influences, and genetics.

- Bladder sphincter dyssynergia - Bladder sphincter dyssynergia or more correctly detrusor sphincter dysynergia (DSD) is a consequence of a neurological condition such as spinal injury or multiple sclerosis (MS) where the contraction of the bladder musculature is not coordinated with the relaxation of the sphincter. Instead of the urethra relaxing completely during voiding it dyssynergically contracts causing the flow to be interrupted and the detrusor pressure to rise.
