mammary gland tumor
Most common mammary gland tumors in dogs
sarcomas (four types), carcinosarcomas (mixed mammary tumors), or benign adenomas
most often benign mixed tumors!
most common mammary gland tumors in cats
90% of mammary tumors in cats are malignant!!!!
mostly adenocarcinoma
classification of tumors
based on the extent of the tumor, involvement of lymph nodes, and presence of metastatic lesions (TNM system); it includes unclassified tumors and apparently benign dysplasias
Surgery of cryptorchids?
Surgery of spay? describe
hysterectomia describe
How can we prevent mammary tumors?
Spaying dogs and cats before their first heat might decrease their chance of developing mammary tumors to under 1%, after their first heat to around 8%
How can we diagnose prostate tumors?
irregularly shaped prostate gland with hyperechoic, heterogenous foci. Gross metastases are present at the time of diagnosis in >80% of dogs with prostatic carcinoma. The most common sites of metastases are the regional lymph nodes, lumbar vertebrae, and bony pelvis. Spread to distant sites (such as the lungs) is uncommon until late in the course of disease. Urethral obstruction caused by prostatic disease in dogs is highly suggestive of neoplasia, as is prostatomegaly in a previously castrated dog. Diagnosis is made by biopsy. Prostatic tumor markers used for human prostatic cancer, such as prostate-specific antigen or prostatic acid phosphatase, are not present in canine prostate glands
