N2  - A female Terrier dog with the age of 11 was brought to our hospital with complains of anorexia, loss ofweight, lethargy and abdominal swelling. In the abdominal palpation, a mass extending towards the caudal in the rightquadrant was identified. Presence of a mass was confirmed in the direct radiographic examination, which supports theclinical finding. In the abdominal ultrasonography it was determined that the liver had lost its homogenous structure,there was free fluid in the abdomen, and the liver borders were irregular. The ALP, total protein, ALB and GGT wereidentified as 328 IU/L, 2.74 g/dl, 1.85 g/dl and 12.2 U/I respectively in the biochemical analysis. Experimentallaparotomy was applied to the case and a diffused mass was identified in the liver. Samples were taken from theneoplastic masses during the operation and the abdomen was closed after identifying diffused neoplastic formations inall lobes. Following the histo-pathological examination of the sample, the patient was diagnosed with hepatocellularcarcinoma. In this paper, it was aimed to report the clinical, radiological, ultrasonographic, biochemical andhaematological findings of a hepatocellular carcinoma observed in a dog.
