Abstract

A 14-year-old, male Shih-tzu was presented with glaucoma in the left eye. Menace response was negative in the left eye. On ophthalmic examination, exotropia, buphthalmos, bulging of upper lateral globe and episcleral injection was detected in the left eye. Also, there was corneal edema, corneal pigmentation and hyphema in the left eye. The pupil was difficult to observe due to corneal lesions in the left eye. On ultrasonographic examination, an amorphous large mass protruding from the region of the optic disc into the vitreous was observed in the left eye. Enucleation was performed in the left eye. Histologically, the left intraocular mass was diagnosed as glioma. Immunohistochemically, the neoplastic cells were positive to glial fibrillary acidic protein.
