Lesions occurring on the skin and mucous membranes of domestic animals often present both diagnostic challenges and diagnostic confusion. One of the most common causes of confusion is inflammatory lesions that can be mistaken for neoplasia and vice versa. This confusion may emanate from intrinsic biologic variability, histopathologic interpretation, secondary alterations subsequent to inflammation or necrosis, or sampling errors and omission of pertinent information by the clinician. Some diagnostic problems associated with diagnoses of granulomatous inflammation, mesenchymal neoplasia, mast cell tumors, and squamous cell carcinomas are presented, and selected specific differential diagnoses associated with diagnostic problems are discussed.
家畜皮肤和黏膜上出现的病变常常带来诊断挑战和诊断困惑。造成困惑的最常见原因之一是炎症性病变可能被误诊为肿瘤，反之亦然。这种困惑可能源于内在的生物学变异性、组织病理学解释、炎症或坏死后的继发性改变、采样误差以及临床医生遗漏相关信息。本文介绍了一些与肉芽肿性炎症、间叶性肿瘤、肥大细胞瘤和鳞状细胞癌诊断相关的诊断问题，并讨论了与这些诊断问题相关的特定鉴别诊断。
