CANINE LYMPHOMA AND PYOMETRA IN A SPITZ

Abstract
A eight years old spitz female dog weighing around 9 Kg (BSA=0.437m2) with a history of facial edema, dyspneic, tachycardia and abducted elbow was brought to the Madras Veterinary College Teaching Hospital. On clinical examination generalised lymphadenopathy with exercise intolerance was noticed. Serological investigation revealed elevated calcium levels. Abdominal ultrasonography revealed anechoic sacculation in the uterus, the mesenteric lymph nodes were enlarged and spleen showed reticular pattern. Radiography of abdomen revealed uterine involvement and pulmonary infiltration. Fine needle aspiration was collected from enlarged popliteal lymph node and cytology of the same confirmed it as Lymphoma.
