Abstract

A 12-years-old Maltese (castrated male) dog with jaundice and purulent discharge from the shoulder was referred to the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of Chungnam National University. A physical and laboratory examination revealed that the mucosa of the conjunctiva and the sclera were icteric, and the liver functional enzyme level and the total bilirubin level were increased. Duodenal caudal deviation caused by suspected masses in diameter of about 2 cm was shown by radiographic and ultrasonographic examinations. Using fine needle aspiration (FNA) and computed tomography (CT), the dog was diagnosed with alimentary lymphoma. The dog was treated with chemotherapy. Hematuria was discovered and dysuria occurred because of sterile hemorrhagic cystitis, which is a unique complication resulting from the use of cyclophosphamide.
