A Case Report on Treatment of Mammary Tumor in Dog

Abstract

A female Golden Retriever dog was brought to the Teaching and Training Pet Hospital and Research Center (TTPHRC) presenting signs of weakness and lethargic behavior. There was a mass found in the mid-inguinal area. An incision was made on the skin extending to the mass. Toward the end of the prepubic area, the mass grew from the mid-inguinal region, enveloping the third pair of teats. After physical examination, the mass was tentatively diagnosed as a malignant tumor. The owners were thoroughly informed about the risks associated with the surgery by the surgeons, who subsequently carried out the surgical excision with their permission. Since such an occurrence can be prevented by surgical excision in the chosen area. Tumors with the affected teats were removed successfully. On postoperative observation for one month period, the animal was totally healthA female Golden Retriever dog was brought to the Teaching and Training Pet Hospital and Research Center (TTPHRC) presenting signs of weakness and lethargic behavior.
