An intrathoracic mass was discovered as an incidental finding in a 14-year-old, spayed, female Rottweiler cross during evaluation of urinary incontinence. Computed tomography suggested a pericardial or pleural location and high adipose content of the mass. The mass was removed via lateral thoracotomy with partial pericardectomy and was diagnosed as a pericardial lipoma. The dog recovered well, and there was no evidence of recurrence approximately one year later. Adipose tumours of the heart and its associated structures are rare in dogs and have been associated with both successful and fatal outcomes.
在对一只14岁已绝育的罗威纳杂交母犬进行尿失禁评估时，偶然发现了一个胸腔内肿块。计算机断层扫描显示肿块位于心包或胸膜位置，且脂肪含量高。通过侧胸壁切开术并部分切除心包将肿块切除，诊断为心包脂肪瘤。这只狗恢复良好，大约一年后没有复发迹象。犬心脏及其相关结构的脂肪肿瘤很少见，且与成功和致命的结果都有关联。
