“…There is no consensus regarding the classification of cutaneous vascular tumours in horses, possibly due to the rarity of the condition (Gelatt et al, 1996;Golbar et al, 2010;Johnson et al, 1996;Johnstone, 1987;Kleiter et al, 2009; © 2021 EVJ Ltd.…”

Cutaneous haeangiomas are benign vascular neoplasms that arise from endothelial cells of blood vessels. Haemangiomas account for 0.6%-4% of all equine cutaneous neoplasms and the fetlock is the most commonly affected site. We describe the use of computed tomography angiography (CTA) for the evaluation of a cutaneous haemangioma located on the plantarolateral aspect of the left hindlimb fetlock of a 9month-old Standardbred colt. Computed tomography angiography of the affected fetlock was performed under general anaesthesia. The medial plantar artery was catheterised and a total volume of 50 ml of iodinated nonionic contrast medium (Iopamidol, 300 mg I/ml, Bracco Imaging Canada) was injected at a rate of 2 ml/s. Following contrast medium administration, the dorsal metatarsal artery and branches including the lateral and medial digital arteries were well demarcated. Two smaller lateral and medial arteries were also identified, forming the vascular network of the metatarsophalangeal joint. At the level of the haemangioma, two tortuous arteries arising from the lateral digital artery were identified, in addition to multiple small branches from nearby cutaneous arteries. These vessels supplied the homogeneously strongly contrast-enhancing cutaneous mass. The initial goal of the CTA study was to map the vascular anatomy for arterial embolisation in conjunction with pharmacological therapy. Considering the involvement of multiple small arterial branches, complete surgical excision along with ligation of the two main supplying arteries was alternatively elected, resulting in a successful long-term outcome. Clinical findingsAt the time of second referral to the Ontario Veterinary College at 9 months of age, no abnormalities were observed on physical examination other than recurrence of the proliferative tissues on the plantarolateral aspect of the left metatarsophalangeal joint. The mass was 5.7 cm dorsoplantar 9 3.4 cm proximodistal 9 1.1 cm lateromedial and characterised by a dark purple colour, welldemarcated margins and a combination of verrucous and smooth surfaces (Fig 2). It was easily movable and appeared attached only to the cutaneous and subcutaneous tissues. Pain was not elicited on palpation and no lameness was noted when the colt was evaluated at the trot.

“…Das von Musonda et al (20) beschriebene Adenokarzinom bei einer Sau metastasierte ebenfalls in die Lunge. Auch Adenokarzinome des Uterus streuten vorwiegend in die Lunge, aber auch in die Leber (7,10) und regionale Lymphknoten (10). Bei unserem Patienten konnten 10 Tage nach der Mastektomie radiologisch keine Metastasen in der Lunge und dem Abdomen nachgewiesen werden.…”

ZusammenfassungDer Fallbericht beschreibt eine tumoröse Umfangsvermehrung der Milchdrüse eines 10 Jahre alten, weiblichen Göttinger Minipigs. Auffällige klinische Befunde waren eine entzündliche Umfangsvermehrung eines Gesäugekomplexes mit Hautläsion der Zitze und Abfluss eines übelriechenden, dünnflüssigen Sekrets. Zudem zeigte das Tier ein reduziertes Allgemeinbefinden mit Schmerzäußerungen, Inappetenz und Dehydratation. Die erfolgte Mastektomie mit histopathologischer Untersuchung des Gewebes führte zur Diagnose eines Adenokarzinoms. Das Schwein erholte sich komplikationslos und war 6 Monate nach der Operation symptomfrei.
