A dog with chronic pruritus that was refractory to antibiotic, corticosteroid, and antihistamine treatment was found to have lymphoma involving the spleen and associated lymph nodes. Pruritus rapidly resolved on removal of the tumor and recurred on reappearance. The association of generalized pruritus with an occult malignant process may be difficult to assess, but after excluding the more common causes of pruritus, a visceral malignancy should be considered.
一只患有慢性瘙痒症的狗，对抗生素、皮质类固醇和抗组胺药治疗无效，经检查发现患有累及脾脏及相关淋巴结的淋巴瘤。切除肿瘤后瘙痒迅速缓解，肿瘤复发时瘙痒又再次出现。全身性瘙痒与隐匿性恶性病变之间的关联可能难以评估，但在排除瘙痒的常见病因后，应考虑内脏恶性肿瘤的可能性。
