A 10-year-old intact male Norwich terrier dog was evaluated for progressive, intermittent increased respiratory effort. Thoracic radiographs, ultrasonography, and computed tomography were used to identify a caudodorsal thoracic extrapulmonary mass and the presence of pulmonary metastasis. Blood transfusion and stabilization measures were not successful and the patient died. Necropsy confirmed the origin of the mass to be the adventitial layer of the aorta and determined it to be hemangiosarcoma. This is a rare site for the primary lesion.
一只10岁未绝育的雄性诺威奇梗犬因进行性、间歇性呼吸费力而接受评估。通过胸部X光片、超声检查和计算机断层扫描，发现了一个位于胸段背侧的肺外肿块以及肺转移灶。输血和稳定病情的措施均未成功，该犬死亡。尸检证实肿块起源于主动脉外膜层，为血管肉瘤。这是原发性病变的一个罕见部位。
