Abstract

Primary rib tumors occur in dogs at a much lower frequency than appendicular bone neoplasms. A 3-year-old 3.5kg female maltese was referred to the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital because of a 2-month history of severe coughing and a 1-month history of dyspnea, gaging, and anorexia. The plain thoracic radiography revealed a huge well-defined mass in the left thoracic cavity, and a diagnosis of primary rib chondrosarcoma was established by histopathologic evaluation of the surgical biopsy specimen. At operation, a 8-x12-x4.5-cm relatively large firm mass was found filling the lumen of the thoracic, which was diffusely attached to the left 2-9th rib. This mass oppressed the heart, left lung and diaphragm.
