In the present study, a case of a spontaneously metastasizing seminoma in 9-year-old pet lionhead rabbit is described. The rabbit was presented with unilateral testicular enlargement and a palpable abdominal mass. Spiral computed tomography revealed the presence of an abdominal-pelvic mass in the region of the sublumbar lymph nodes. Testes and lymph nodes were collected, fixed in formalin, and submitted for histopathological examination. Microscopically, the normal architecture of the enlarged testis and lymph node was completely replaced by a diffuse malignant seminoma.
在本研究中，描述了一例9岁宠物狮子头兔自发性转移性精原细胞瘤的病例。该兔子表现为单侧睾丸肿大和可触及的腹部肿块。螺旋计算机断层扫描显示在腰下淋巴结区域存在腹盆腔肿块。收集睾丸和淋巴结，用福尔马林固定，并提交进行组织病理学检查。显微镜下，肿大的睾丸和淋巴结的正常结构完全被弥漫性恶性精原细胞瘤取代。
