Excision of prolapsed vaginal fibroma in a Golden Retriever dog
Downloads
Vaginal fibromas are a type of neoplasm that is commonly found in dogs. This report describes a case involving a 13-year-old female Golden Retriever (intact) that presented with pain during urination and a visible mass protruding from the vagina. On physical examination, the dog was found to be in shock with vaginal pain. An oval-shaped, hard texture, white mass measuring 9.3 cm x 5.5 cm, covered with blood, was observed. Hematological analysis revealed leukocytosis, lymphocytosis, granulopenia, hyperchromic microcytic anemia, and thrombocytopenia. The tumor mass was excised, and the vaginal wall was repositioned and sutured. Premedication included atropine sulfate and xylazine, and anesthesia was administered using ketamine and isoflurane. Postoperative care consisted of tolfenamic acid, vitamin K1, amoxicillin, meloxicam, and Sangobion® supplements. Histopathological examination using hematoxylin-eosin staining revealed fusiform fibroma cells. Seven days post-excision, the sutures were removed, and the vaginal condition returned to normal.
