Abstract

A 10 year-old castrated male Maltese dog with a mass on the right carpal joint was referred to the Chungnam National University Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital. Mass size was 0.5 cm in width, 0.8 cm in length and 0.8 cm in height. Surface of the mass was hairless and ulcerated, and also the peripheral furs of mass were discolored by continuous licking. This case was diagnosed as basal cell tumor by fine needle aspiration and histopathologic examination. This dog didn't lick the carpal joint after surgery.
