Disseminated histiocytic sarcoma (HS) was diagnosed on post-mortem examination of a 1.5-year-old African hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris) that was presented in poor physical condition and with diarrhoea. Leucocytosis and a hypoechoic abdominal mass were noted on haematological and ultrasonographical examinations. Gross pathological, histopathological, immunohistochemical and ultrastructural evaluation of the mass supported a diagnosis of disseminated HS. To our knowledge, this report represents the first documentation of disseminated HS in this species.
一只1.5岁的非洲刺猬（Atelerix albiventris）身体状况不佳且伴有腹泻，死后尸检诊断为播散性组织细胞肉瘤（HS）。血液学和超声检查发现白细胞增多以及腹部低回声肿块。对该肿块进行大体病理、组织病理、免疫组化和超微结构评估，支持播散性HS的诊断。据我们所知，本报告是该物种播散性HS的首次记录。
