A 23-yr-old female spayed bobcat (Lynx rufus) presented with a 1-wk history of hypersalivation. On examination, the right mandible was markedly thickened, the right mandibular dental arcade was missing, and the oral mucosa over the right mandible was ulcerated and thickened. Skull radiographs and fine needle aspirate cytology were supportive of squamous cell carcinoma. The bobcat was euthanized as a result of its poor prognosis. Necropsy confirmed a diagnosis of oral squamous cell carcinoma of the mandible. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of oral squamous cell carcinoma in a bobcat.
一只23岁已绝育的雌性短尾猫(猞猁属)出现了1周的流涎过多病史。检查时,右侧下颌骨明显增厚,右侧下颌牙弓缺失,右侧下颌骨上方的口腔黏膜溃疡且增厚。颅骨X光片和细针穿刺抽吸细胞学检查结果支持鳞状细胞癌的诊断。由于预后不佳,这只短尾猫被实施了安乐死。尸检确诊为下颌骨口腔鳞状细胞癌。据作者所知,这是关于短尾猫口腔鳞状细胞癌的首例报告。
