Abstract

A 9-year-old, intact female Jindo dog weighing 23 kg was presented to the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of Chungnam National University with a history of two months of ocular discharge. Initial ocular examination showed a 2 cm elongated mass arising from the ventral bulbar conjunctiva of the left eye. Ocular ultrasound, performed to rule out any orbital and intraocular involvement, was negative. Thoracic radiographs and abdominal ultrasonography revealed no abnormalities. Fine needle aspiration (FNA) of mass was performed. Aspiration cytology showed the presence of a round cell population mostly characterized. A moderate amount of eosinophils was present among round cells. The mass was excised and identified hitologically as a mast cell tumor. Six months after surgical treatment, thoracic radiographs and abdominal ultrasonography did not reveal any clinical signs of local recurrence or metastatic disease.

9 년령 23 kg의 암컷 진도견이 2개월 동안의 안구 분비물을 주요증상으로 본원에 내원하였다. 초기 안검사에서 좌측 아래 안구 결막 부위에서 크기 2 cm의 길게 돌출 된 종괴를 발견하였다. 다른 안구 및 주위 조직의 이상소견을 확인하기 위해 안구초음파를 실시 하였고 모두 음성으로 판명되었다. 또한 흉 복부에 실시한 X-ray 검사에서도 특이 소견이 관찰되지 않았다. 세포학적 검사에서 다수의 원형세포와 중등도의 호산구 (eosinophils)가 관찰되었다. 종괴는 외과적으로 절제되었고 조직학적 검사를 통해 비만세포종 (mast cell tumor)로 진단되었다. 수술 후 6개월 뒤 실시한 흉복부 X-ray 및 초음파 검사에서 종양의 전이 또는 재발은 관찰되지 않았다.
