A case of multicentric high grade T cell lymphoma is reported in a 5-year-old male Maltese dog with generalized lymphadenopathy. The dog showed depression, anorexia, blindness, jaundice, arrhythmia, and hematuria for 8 months. Complete blood count and chemistry profile revealed anemia and increased alanine transferase, alkaline phosphatase, total bilirubin, and total cholesterol. Grossly, most of lymph nodes, spleen, and liver were enlarged and neoplastic masses were occupied in these tissues. Histologically, massive accumulation of small noncleaved neoplastic lymphocytes with high mitotic figures was observed in all lymph nodes and spleen. Infiltration of neoplastic lymphocytes was also noted in the lung, liver, kidney, eye, skin, muscle, and bone marrow of femur. Immunohistochemistry revealed that tumor cells were CD3-positive and but CD79a-negative, consistent with T-cell lineage. In our best knowledge, this is the first report of multicentric lymphoma clarified the origin of tumor cells in Korea.

Multicentric Castleman's disease (CD) is a rare atypical lymphoproliferative disorder, which is characterized by various systemic manifestations. Some patients with multicentric CD may have concomitant lung parenchymal lesions, for which lymphoid interstitial pneumonia (LIP) is known to be the most common pathologic finding. Follicular bronchiolitis and LIP are considered to be on the same spectrum of the disease. We describe a case of multicentric CD with pulmonary involvement, which was pathologically proven as follicular bronchiolitis.

연골 육종은 가장 흔한 원발성 골육종 중 하나로, 간엽성 연골육종을 제외하면 대체로 저 악성도 병변이며, 다발성 발현이나 원격 전이가 드문 것으로 알려져 있다. 다발성 내연골종(Ollier's disease)과 Maffucci's 증후군에서 다발성 연골육종이 발생한 례가 드물게 보고되었으며, 아직까지 한 관절을 사이에 두고 그 근위부와 원위부에서 연골육종이 동시에 발생한 례는 보고된 적이 없었다. 저자들은 30세 남자 환자에서 폐나 내장의 전이를 동반하지 않고, 한쪽 견관절을 사이에 두고 견갑골의 견봉과 상완골에서 동시에 발생한 다발성 연골육종을 경험하였으며, 이를 "동시성 다발성 관절 근접 연골육종"이라 명하였다. 견봉에 위치한 병변은 소파술과 함께 동종 골이식과 시멘트 충전술을 시행하였으며, 근위 상완골 병변은 설상 절제술과 시멘트 충전술을 시행하였다. 수술 후 18개월까지 재발의 증거가 관찰되지 않았으며, 통증 없이 전 범위 운동이 가능하였다.

Multicentric chondrosarcoma other than the mesenchymal subtype is rare separate entity. We experienced a case with nonmonomelic synchronous multicentric chondrosarcoma without any preexisting lesions of Oilier's disease or Maffucci's syndrome. To our knowledge, there was no report of synchronous nonmonomelic multicentric chondrosarcoma. A thirty-three year old man had right distal thigh pain of one and half year. Bone scan showed hot lesions on medial condyle of right femur and shaft of left femur. Plain X-ray showed osteolytic lesion on right femur and slight cortical thickening and calcific lesion was observed on left femoral shaft. Curettage and bone cement filling was done on both lesions. The pathology reports were grade I chondrosarcoma on both side of femur. At one month from operation, pathologic fracture of left femur occurred on bone cement-host bone junction. Conservative treatment and radiotherapy of 60Gy was done. At 8 months from operation, nonunion was evident. Segmental resection of left femur with contralateral fibula graft and second look operation on right condyle lesion were done. At 6 months from revision, fracture occurred at host-graft bone junction. We removed previous hardware and applied long DCP and massive autogenous bone graft. Afterwards, the patient looks good and union was progressing. But at 4 years from last operation, hypertrophic nonunion occurred. Another revision was done with condylar plate and bone graft and now he is well without any sign of local recurrence or metastasis.

We describe here a multicentric spontaneous malignant schwannoma obtained from one male F344 rat, and this animal was the subject of a carcinogenicity study for which it was treated with diisodecyl phthalate. The animal of the control group not treated with diisodecyl phthalate showed dyspnea and severe lordosis. On the necropsy, two tan, firm, encapsulated masses were observed in the subcutis of the lumbosacral region and the left inguinal region of the abdominal cavity, respectively; the masses were $25{\times}17{\times}8$ mm and $16{\times}14{\times}8$ mm in size, respectively. Histologically, the tumor consisted of spindle and pleomorphic cells that grew in various patterns, that was, sweeping fascicles and herringbone and local organoid patterns. The pleomorphic neoplastic cells had more than two nuclei. Additionally, the diagnosis of malignant schwannoma was confirmed by the immune reactivity of the tumor cells for S-100 protein.

A 3-year old male Maltese, which had enlarged and ballooned superficial lymph-nodes, was admitted to the Veterinary Teaching Hospital, College of Veterinary Medicine, Kyung-pook National University. Radiographic findings indicated cranial mediastinal mass, interstitial pneumonitis, conspicuous splenomegaly and liver enlargement. The patient showed anorexia, depression and anemia. It was autopsied following its death 2 days after admittance. There were copious hemoperitoneum, lymphomatous mass in the spleen, torsion of the mesenterium and stenosis of the duodenum. On the microscopic observation, there was the increase of the amount of lymphocytic cytoplasm and numbers of nucleus-devided lymphocytes followed by their diffused infiltration in lymph nodule. Based on the physical, histological and pathological findings, this case was diagnosed as a multicentric form of lymphosarcoma.

A 4-year-old female Cocker spaniel was presented with respiratory distress and abdominal distension. Pleural effusion, ascites, hepatosplenomegaly, and superficial lymphadenopathy were observed and multicentric lymphoma was diagnosed by cytological examination. Immunophenotyping of lymph node and bone marrow using polymerase chain reaction for antigen receptor rearrangement identified a stage V lymphoma originating from T-cell. Despite of systemic chemotherapy using L-asparagenase, vincristine, cyclophoaphamide and prednisolone, neurologic deficits came out and progressed. Cerebrospinal fluid analysis revealed neoplastic lymphocytic pleocytosis indicating central nervous system involvement of lymphoma. The postmortem diagnosis was confirmed based on the histology and imunohistochemistry.

A melanotic neuroectodermal tumor of infancy (MNTI) is a uncommon osteolytic pigmented neoplasm that primarily affects the jaws of newborn infants. Most patients (> 90%) present with the tumor in the first year of life. Approximately 65% form in the maxilla, 11% in the mandible, 5% in the brain and elsewhere. MNTI is normally benign, but up to 15% may recur and a few have metastasized. Approximately 200 cases of MNTI have been reported but only 2 of them presented as multifocal. A case of MNTI in a 7 month old boy was encountered. The chief complaint was maxillary anterior ridge swelling. The incisional biopsy findings were MNTI. Two months after the first operation, mild swelling of another site was observed. The infant was examined periodically since undergoing two procedures with no recurrence. This case demonstrates the possibility of a multicentric MNTI. We report a multicentric MNTI with a review of the relevant literature.
