A two-year-old male German shepherd dog was admitted to Shahid Bahonar Veterinary Hospital with clinical signs that included lethargy, anorexia, vomiting, abdominal pain and dehydration. Physical examination revealed nothing significant. Routine paraclinical tests only revealed a stress leukogram. Radiography revealed a mass in the stomach. Whilst performing a laparotomy, the surgeon observed an unusual mass in the subserosal layer of the proximal part of the jejunum. The histopathology of the mass revealed some scattered sebaceous and sweat glands associated with the cyst wall that confirmed the diagnosis of a dermoid cyst. Intestinal dermoid cysts are very rare and to our knowledge this is the first report of an intestinal dermoid cyst in a dog.
一只两岁的雄性德国牧羊犬因出现嗜睡、厌食、呕吐、腹痛和脱水等临床症状被送往沙希德·巴霍纳尔兽医医院。体格检查未发现明显异常。常规辅助检查仅显示应激白细胞象。放射检查发现胃内有一个肿块。在进行剖腹手术时,外科医生在空肠近端的浆膜下层观察到一个异常肿块。肿块的组织病理学检查显示囊肿壁上有一些散在的皮脂腺和汗腺,证实为皮样囊肿。肠道皮样囊肿非常罕见,据我们所知,这是首例关于犬肠道皮样囊肿的报道。
