Abstract

An eight-year old neutered male miniature pinscher dog was referred with a mass on the right frontal region. Radiography, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination were performed. Imaging results showed mineralized mass invaded frontal bone without brain parenchymal change and distant metastasis. The mass was removed mostly by surgical resection, and the dog was discharged without any complications. On the histopathological examination, the mass was diagnosed as grade I multilobular osteochondrosarcoma. Though the mass recurred after the surgical resection, the dog is still alive to date without metastasis.
