Abstract

GYNECOLOGIC PATHOLOGY COMPLEX IN A BITCH A 10 years old, intact, nulliparus, 7 kg in body weight, mixed bred bitch was presented to our clinic with vaginal mass, various sized tumoral masses on mammary tissue and anorexia. Pyometra and cystic structures on both ovaries were observed by ultrasonographic examination. As a surgical approach, ovariohysterectomy, bilateral mastectomy and extirpation of vaginal mass were applied in the same general anesthesia. Pathologic examination revealed several follicular cysts on both ovaries. In histological sections of the uterus, lumen intense neutrophil leukocytes in and pus which was formed by degenerated epithelia confirmed the presence of pyometra. It was identified histopathologically that the vaginal mass was a leiomyoma and the masses on mammary tissues were Adenocarcinoma grade II.

Abstract

ÖZET

10 yaşında, kısırlaştırılmamış, hiç doğum yapmamış, 7 kg ağırlığında, melez dişi bir köpek, vaginal kitle, meme loblarında değişen büyüklükte tümöral oluşumlar ve iştahsızlık nedenleriyle kliniğimize getirildi. Yapılan ultrasonografik muayene sonucunda pyometra ve her iki ovaryumda kistik oluşumlar gözlendi. Tek bir genel anestezi altında cerrahi yaklaşım olarak ovariohisterektomi, bilateral mastektomi ve vaginal kitlenin ekstirpasyonu uygulandı. Patolojik inceleme sonucunda her iki ovaryumda çok sayıda folliküler kistler belirlendi. Yapılan histolojik kesitlerde uterus lumeninde yoğun biçimde nötrofil lökosit ve dejenere epitellerin görülmesi pyometra varlığını teyit etti. Histopatoloji sonucuna göre vaginal kitlenin leiomiyom ve meme dokularındaki kitlelerin II. derece Adenokarsinom olduğu saptandı.
