Abstract
|
|
|
|
A 12-year-old castrated male Maltese dog was presented with a small-sized mass at the left fifth mammary gland. The dog had concurrent poorly responsive pruritus affecting the feet, pinnae, and trunk, a cystolith, and biliary sludge. Serum chemistry revealed elevated liver enzymes. The mammary gland mass was cytologically diagnosed as an early-stage mammary simple carcinoma and was surgically excised. Nine months after the diagnosis of the mammary carcinoma, hyperadrenocorticism was confirmed by adrenocorticotropic hormone stimulation test. This report describes the clinical signs, diagnostic imaging findings, and prognosis in a castrated male Maltese dog with mammary carcinoma.
