Abstract

A 9-year-old, female, Maltese Dog(2.15 kg of body weight) was referred to the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital, Chungnam National University with cervical masses, abdominal masses and petechia. Physical examination showed masses in mandibular, prescapular, inguinal, popliteal lymph node and abdominal subcutaneous hemorrhage. This case was diagnosed as the multicentric lymphoma by physical examination, laboratory examination, radiography, ultrasonography, CT, fine needle aspiration and histopathologic examination. This dog was treated by low-budget protocol with lomustine and prednisolone. The dog show that response duration and survival time is 143days and 263 days, respectively.
