Hepatocellular Carcinoma in Dog – Case Report
Journal Title: Journal of Veterinary Advances - Year 2012, Vol 2, Issue 7
Abstract
A 12-year-old mixed dog, male, weighing 11 kg was referred for surgery with ultrasound exams suggesting hepatic neoplasia and hemoperitoneum. The identification of the affected liver lobes was performed by computed tomography, leading the patient to go through hepatic lobectomy of two liver lobes. This patient had a 12-month survival exceeding expectations for this neoplasm that is around 4 months.
