This study was performed to examine the clinical, serological, ultrasonographic and pathological findings in dogs with acute liver disease induced by tetrachlorethylene at 4 times of anthelminthic oral dose. The results obtained through this experiment could be summarized as follows: 1. The dogs administered with tetrachlorethylene, revealed decreased body weight, and showed lethargy and depression. 2. In serological findings, bilirubin values slightly increased, AST and ALT was decreased at 1∼3 days, and after that time increased according to the lapse of days, and revealed the highest at 5 days, and decreased to normal values at 6 days. 3. In ultrasonographic findings, branches of the portal vein were increased, the echodensity of the liver parenchyma was decreased at early stage, and increased at mid stage, and decreased at last stage. 4. In histopathological findings, necrosis of parenchymal cell, and perivascular hemorrhage were observed more severely at 6 days, as compared with 3 days. There results suggest that ultrasonographic examination is considered to be a more simple, rapid, non-invasive and useful diagnostic method for acute liver parenchymal lesion.

A five-year-old female Yorkshire Terrier dog presented with a perianal mass. Fine needle aspiration revealed that the mass comprised two different types of cells: hepatoid epithelial cells and melanin-containing melanocytes. Histopathological examination confirmed perianal gland adenoma with malignant melanoma. Evidence of metastasis was found on thoracic radiography with soft-tissue densities observed within the pulmonary parenchyma. The dog survived for three months after diagnosis of malignant melanoma. This report describes the clinical findings, diagnostics used, cytological and histopathological findings, and the potential prognosis for a dog diagnosed with malignant anal sac melanoma.

A 17-year-old neutered male Miniature Pinscher dog presented with a mass on the left side of the submandibular region. Fine needle aspiration revealed malignant epithelial cells from the salivary gland but no evidence of metastasis was found on radiography, ultrasonography, or computed tomography. The cervical mass was surgically resected, and the histopathological examination confirmed adenocarcinoma of the mandibular salivary gland. Seven months after the initial diagnosis, the dog is alive without any clinical signs. This report describes the clinical findings, cytology, diagnostic imaging, and histopathological characteristics of a mandibular salivary gland adenocarcinoma in a Miniature Pinscher dog.

Objective: To explore the clinical manifestations and imaging characteristics of gliomatosis cerebri to raise the awareness and improve its diagnostic accuracy for patients. Materials and Methods: Clinical data, imaging characteristics and pathological examination of 12 patients with GC from Jan., 2008 to Jan., 2012 were analyzed retrospectively. Results: Patients with GC were clinically manifested with headache, vomiting, repeated seizures, fatigue and unstable walking, most of whom had more than 2 lesions involving in parietal lobe, followed by temporal lobe, frontal lobe, periventricular white matter and corpus callosum. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed diffuse distribution, T1-weighted images (T1WI) with equal and low signals and T2-weighted images (T2WI) with bilateral symmetrical high diffuse signals. There was no reinforcement by enhancement scanning and signals were different in diffusion-weighted images (DWI). The higher the tumor staging, the stronger the signals. Pathological examination showed neuroastrocytoma in which tumor tissues were manifested by infiltrative growth in blood vessels and around neurons. Conclusions: In clinical diagnosis of GC, much attention should be paid to the diffuse distribution of imaging characteristics, incomplete matching between clinical and imaging characteristics and confirmation by combining with histopathological examination.

Helicobacter species have been identified in or isolated from domestic carnivores, but their prevalence in different population of animals and their clinical significance are still unknown. This study was peformed to evaluate the prevalence of Helicobacter in clinically healthy dogs by urease test, culture, morphological examination and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique. Tissue samples from 70 dogs in Kangwon and Kyunggi areas from August 1998 to April, 1999, were examined. The detection rates of Helicobacter by urease activity of tissue-samples were 84.6%, 61.3% and 4.8 % in the fundus, the antrum and the duodenum, respectively. One strain of Helicobacter was isolated from the duodenum. It was identified as H canis by biochemical and morphorogical examination. The detection rates of Helicobacter by histological examination were 92.3%, 79.0% and 4.8% in the fundus, antrum and the duodenum, respectively. Helicobacter organisms were colonized more in the gastric pits than in the surface of epithelium, the gastric gland or the parietal cell. Although most of dogs were colonized with Helicobacter in tissue, gross lesions and specific histopathological lesions caused by Helicobacter in these tissues were not observed. The detection rate of Helicobacter by PCR was 78.6%. The histological examination was more sensitive than urease test, culture or PCR technique for the detection of Helicobacter.

An 8-year-old, female Pointer dog was presented with weight loss, hematochezia, and dyschezia. For the diagnosis, physical examination, complete blood counts, serum chemistry, radiography, ultrasonography, computed tomography, colonoscopy, cytology and histopathological examination were performed. The complete blood counts and serum biochemistry results were within the reference range. Ultrasonographic findings were presented with the thickened wall of the colon and rectum. Colonoscopy revealed irregular and ulcerated mucosal surface, mass and luminal narrowing of colorectal lesions. There were thickened wall and contrast enhancement of the lesion in colorectal region on the computed tomography. The cytologic examination suggested the adenocarcinoma. Postmortem histopathologic examination revealed adenocarcinoma. Based on these findings, the dog was diagnosed with annular colorectal adenocarcinoma.

Plasma cell granuloma of the lung is very rare and most commonly detected in routine chest films. The prognosis of this disease is usually good with surgical resection. Recently, we experienced a case of this, the diagnosis of which was confirmed by postoperative histopathological examination. The operation was right upper lobectomy under the impression of benign tumor of the lung. The postoperative course was uneventful and the patients was discharged without any complication. Now we report this with literature reviews.

Squamous cell carcinoma of the skin was diagnosed in an 11-year-old, Australian shepherd dog with a hard mass on the right rump area. On histopathological examination of the tumor showed laminated keratin "pearls" surrounded by proliferated squamous cells, and mitotic figures. The dog was treated by surgical excision and chemotherapy with vinblastine sulfate, cyclophosphamide and prednisolone for 4 weeks. The tumor was effectively treated with a combination of surgery and chemotherapy.motherapy.

An elective laparoscopic ovariectomy on a healthy dog revealed a cystic structure in the left ovary. The surgical procedure was successful. Histopathological examination showed the presence of a teratoma adjacent to the ovary. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first reported case of an ovarian teratoma removed by laparoscopic ovariectomy in a dog by using a multiport laparoscopic ovariectomy technique.
