A twelve-year-old intact Siberian Husky bitch was brought to our clinic due to constipation and urination difficulties, attributed to a perineal mass that had been present for approximately one month. Although no tissue mass was visible protruding from the vagina, perineal swelling is remarkable, and the dog exhibited mild leukocytosis and anemia. Vaginal cytology showed densely keratinized superficial cells indicating high estrogen levels. Ultrasonography of the perineal and abdominal areas revealed a solid mass without internal blood flow, besides numerous cystic reflections in the left ovary. In surgery, after removing the two solid masses with episiotomy, the ovariohysterectomy was performed. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnoses of vaginal leiomyosarcoma and ovarian cystadenoma. Following the operations, the patient regained normal urination and defecation and also recovered without complication and no recurrence.

N2 - Bu raporda bir köpekte eşzamanlı görülen vajinal leiomyosarkom ve ovaryan kistadenoma olgusuna ait perioperatif klinik bulgular sunulmuştur. Kısırlaştırılmamış, 12 yaşlı Sibirya Kurdu cinsi dişi köpek yaklaşık bir aydır gözlenen perineal kitleye bağlı kabızlık ve idrar yapma güçlüğü şikayetiyle kliniğimize getirildi. Vajinadan dışarı çıkan bir kitle görülmemesine rağmen, köpekte perineal şişlik belirgindi, hafif lökositoz ve anemi tespit edildi. Vajinal sitolojide yüksek östrojen düzeyine işaret eden yoğun keratinize süperfisial hücreler görüldü. Perineal ve abdominal bölgenin ultrasonografik incelemesinde damarlaşma içermeyen solid bir kitle ve sol ovaryumda çok sayıda kistik yansıma gözlendi. Operasyon sırasında iki solid kitle epizyotomi ile çıkarıldıktan sonra ovariohisterektomi uygulandı. Histopatoloji incelemelerde vajinal leiomyosarkom ve over kistadenoması tanısı kondu. Operasyonları izleyen dönemde hasta normal idrar ve dışkılama fonksiyonlarını yeniden kazandı, komplikasyon yaşamadan ve nüks görülmeden iyileşti.
