초록

In this case study, we present a rare occurrence of simultaneous primary malignant neoplasms arising from the mammary gland and uterus in conjunction with pyometra and inguinal hernia. The subject, a 16-year-old intact mixed-breed dog, exhibited tubulopapillary carcinoma of the mammary gland with grade II malignancy and uterine leiomyosarcoma. Treatment involved partial mastectomy for the mammary carcinoma and ovariohysterectomy for the uterine leiomyosarcoma. Moreover, the inguinal hernia was concurrently repaired during the tumorectomies. The patient demonstrated positive postoperative progress over a span of two years, emphasizing the effectiveness of surgical intervention in managing the coinciding pathologies in an elderly canine. This unique co-occurrence of primary malignant neoplasms originating from distinct organ systems presents valuable insights into diagnostic approaches, disease characteristics, and surgical interventions in the realm of clinical oncology.
