This article reports a case of a 10-year-old French bulldog initially seen for reluctance to move and episodes of pain. A magnetic resonance imaging study was undertaken in order to rule out a herniated disc. A large, retroperitoneal mass was visualized and cytological analysis suggested a neoplastic proliferation. The mass appeared to compress the caudal vena cava when viewed by abdominal CT scan. The mass was surgically removed. A nephrectomy was also carried out and aortic bleeding identified after dissection of adhesions. Despite these complications, the dog did well after the procedures. Postoperative checkups were normal. Histological and immunohistochemical analyses of the mass were compatible with a retroperitoneal paraganglioma. Key clinical message: This type of tumor is poorly described in the veterinary literature. As the behavior of this tumor type is not yet fully understood, each new description adds to our knowledge and should help in diagnosing and treating it more effectively in the future.
本文报道了一例 10 岁法国斗牛犬,最初表现为不愿移动和疼痛发作。为了排除椎间盘突出症,进行了磁共振成像研究。腹部 CT 扫描显示,一个大的腹膜后肿块,细胞学分析提示为肿瘤性增殖。肿块在腹部 CT 扫描时似乎压迫尾腔静脉。肿块被手术切除。还进行了肾切除术,并在分离粘连后发现主动脉出血。尽管有这些并发症,手术后这只狗恢复良好。术后检查正常。肿块的组织学和免疫组织化学分析与腹膜后副神经节瘤一致。主要临床信息:这种类型的肿瘤在兽医文献中描述甚少。由于这种肿瘤类型的行为尚未完全了解,因此每一个新的描述都增加了我们的知识,并有助于我们在未来更有效地诊断和治疗它。
