Anamnesis could not be obtained. On clinical examination, a protruded vaginal mass was detected. In addition, the diagnosis of Transmissible Venereal Tumor was made by vaginal cytologic and histopathological examination. Hematological, biochemical and hormonal analyses were evaluated. Although white blood cell count was increased, a red blood cell count, hemoglobin count and packed cell volume were decreased.

Bir Köpekte Prolapsus Vajina ile Birlikte Gözlemlenen Transmissible Veneral Tümör Olgusu

Abstract

Sunulan vakada, 28 kg canlı ağırlığında melez bir sokak köpeğinde prolapsus vajina ve Transmissible Veneral Tümör olgusu tanımlanmıştır. Dışarıda serbest olarak dolaşan bir köpek vajinada kitle ve hemorajik vajinal kanama şikayeti ile Afyon Kocatepe Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Doğum ve Jinekoloji Anabilim Dalı kliniğine getirildi. Köpeğe ait anamnez bilgisi elde edilemedi. Yapılan klinik muayenede vajina dokusunun dışarıya doğru prolabe olduğu belirlendi. Ayrıca vajinal sitoloji ile birlikte vajina dokusundaki kitlenin histopatolojik muayene sonucuna göre kitleye Transmissible Veneral Tümör tanısı konuldu. Hematolojik, biyokimyasal ve hormonal analizler yapıldı. Beyaz kan hücreleri sayısı artarken, kırmızı kan hücreleri, hemoglobin ve sıkıştırılmış eritrosit hacminin azaldığı belirlendi. Prolabe olan vajina yerine yerleştirildikten sonra ovaryohisterektomi operasyonu yapıldı. Transmissible Veneral Tümör ise genel anestezi altında cerrahi olarak uzaklaştırıldı. Hasta operasyon sonrası klinik düzelme gösterdi.
