Zusammenfassung:The objective of this paper was to report a case of a dog diagnosed with bilateral non-castrated perineal hernia and evaluate the postoperative and surgical treatment. A 10-year-old male YorkShire Terrier was seen at the Unigranrio Veterinary School Hospital, presenting with an increase in volume in the perineal region. The patient was attended with history and anamnesis, besides the performance of ultrasonography and radiography imaging exams. The perineal hernia happens when the muscles of the pelvic diaphragm are weakened and separate, allowing abdominal and/or pelvic content to move into the herniated cavity. The hernia can be unilateral or bilateral. The cause of the weakening of the pelvic diaphragm is poorly understood, but is believed to be associated with male hormonal factors, straining, and congenital or acquired muscle weakness or atrophy. The diagnosis is based on finding a weakened pelvic diaphragm during digital rectal examination, physical examination, and complementary diagnostic tests. Correction of the pathology was performed using the surgical technique of anatomical or traditional herniorrhaphy followed by orchiectomy surgery. The patient returned for evaluation six days after surgery, where an initial healing process of the surgical wound was verified, and the use of emollients and pasty food was maintained. O objetivo deste trabalho foi relatar um caso de um cão diagnosticado com hérnia perineal bilateral não castrado, e avaliar o pós-operatório e tratamento cirúrgico. Foi atendido no Hospital escola veterinário da Unigranrio um cão da raça YorkShire Terrier, macho com 10 anos de idade, apresentando aumento de volume em região do períneo. Foi realizado o atendimento com histórico e anamnese, além da realização dos exames de imagem de ultrassonografia e radiografia. A hérnia perineal acontece quando os músculos do diafragma pélvico se apresentam enfraquecidos e se separam, permitindo que o conteúdo abdominal e/ou pélvico se desloque para a cavidade herniada. A hérnia pode ser unilateral ou bilateral. A causa do enfraquecimento do diafragma pélvico e pouco compreendida, mas acredita-se que esteja associado com fatores hormonais masculinos, esforço e fraqueza ou atrofia musculares congênitas ou adquiridas. O diagnóstico foi baseado em encontrar um diafragma pélvico enfraquecido durante o exame retal digital, exames físicos e exames complementares de diagnóstico. A correção da patologia foi realizada com o uso da técnica cirúrgica de her
