Oral pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma in a dog with the lung metastasis
Abstract
In the study, pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma was described in the oral cavity and the lungs in an old dog. After surgical treatment of oral tumor, the mass was recurred in oro-maxillar region and metastasis to the lungs. In microscopic examination, neoplastic cells had eosinophilic cytoplasm, their nuclei were large, round to oval, and vesicular. They had prominent nucleoli
Özet: Bu çalışmada yaşlı bir köpekte ağız boşluğu ve akciğerlerde pleomorfik rabdomiyosarkom belirlendi. Oral tümörün
cerrahi tedavisi sonrasında kitlenin aynı bölgede yeniden şekillendiği ve akciğerlere metastaz yaptığı görüldü. Mikroskobik
incelemede, neoplastik hücrelerin eozinofilik sitoplazmalı, çekirdeklerinin büyük, yuvarlak-oval şekilli ve veziküler tarzda olduğu
görüldü. Hücrelerin çekirdekçikleri belirgindi.
