“…In the previously mentioned survey of tumors in dogs less than 1 year of age, hemanigosarcoma and osteosarcoma were the most frequently recognized sarcomas with only one case of an undifferentiated sarcoma reported [3]. Interestingly, rhabdomyosarcomas were not reported in this study; however, this tumor has primarily been described in dogs over 1 year of age [1,[5][6][7].…”

A 1.5 year old, female, spayed, Labrador retriever with a history of three abdominal surgeries within the previous two months presented to the North Carolina State University Veterinary Teaching Hospital for evaluation of a pelvic inlet mass causing fecal tenesmus, obstipation, and dysuria. Abdominal ultrasound revealed a caudal abdominal mass extending into the pelvic cavity. Cytologic evaluation of the mass showed a pleomorphic round to fusiform cell population with histiocytic and suppurative inflammation. The primary differential was neoplasia, but inflammation with cellular pleomorphism could not be excluded. Via histopathology and immunohistochemistry, a diagnosis of poorly differentiated sarcoma originating from the uterus or cervix with widespread intra-abdominal dissemination and metastasis was made. Sarcomas of any type are rare in young dogs with only sporadic cases of poorly or undifferentiated sarcomas reported. This case is a unique presentation of an aggressive, poorly differentiated sarcoma arising from the cervix or uterus in a young dog and illustrates the importance of histologic evaluation of surgically resected tissues that are abnormal in appearance.

“…In young dogs, this tumor has been reported to arise in many tissues including the uterus [1,[4][5][6][7]. In the previously mentioned survey of tumors in dogs less than 1 year of age, hemanigosarcoma and osteosarcoma were the most frequently recognized sarcomas with only one case of an undifferentiated sarcoma reported [3].…”

“…Many authors reported occasional cases of finding the rhabdomyosarcoma in the heart atrium and chamber (Krotje et al 1990;Gonin-Jmaa et al 1996;Perez et al 1998), perineal area (Ueno et al 2002), parameningeal area (Illanes 2002), tongue (Lascelles et al 1998), gingiva (Kim et al 1996) or greater omentum (Sarnelli et al 1994). Yanoff et al (1996), Block et al (1995) and Hendersen et al (1991) report rhabdomyosarcomas causing tracheal defects.…”

Neãas A., P. Rau‰er, F. Tich˘, P. Kohout, H. Kecová: Retrobulbar Rhabdomyosarcoma in a Hovawart. Acta Vet. Brno 2003, 72: 399-404. This clinical case study describes a three-year-old female Hovawart dog presented due to a unilateral exophtalmos and diagnosed with a retrobulbar tumour arising from m. rectus ventralis using ultrasound and computer tomography. The tumour was cytologically classified to be of a malignant mesenchymal kind. Modification of lateral orbitotomy with canthotomy was performed and the circumscribed tumour resected in its entirety. After healing, the eye was like the healthy contralateral one. Three months later, however, there was a relapse of the same extent and the patient was euthanised on the owner´s request. Rhabdomyosarcoma was confirmed by repeated histological examinations. Tumour, dog, orbitotomy
