Abstract

Evaluation of Penile Blood Flow in Dogs With TVT Before and After Chemotherapeutic Treatment With Special Reference to its Angioarchitecture

Highlights

  • Atransmissible venereal tumor (TVT), called transmissible lymphosarcoma or Sticker tumor (Milo and Snead, 2014), is a benign tumor of the male dog that mainly affects the dog’s overall genitalia as well as affects the penile erection. As it is transmitted during the coitus (Tella, 2004), besides, it occurs in sexually mature animals (Zayas et al, 2019) during coitus which is transplanted with viable cells across complex histocompatibility barriers within the same species (Mukaratirwa and Gruys, 2003) and can be transmitted to other canine family members (Abeka YT, 2019)

  • Animals were categorized into two main groups; control normal group (Gp I) and group II (Gp II) suffered from TVT

  • The penis partially returned to the normal shape with an appreciable reduction in lesions in the first week after treatment by vincristine (Figure 2C) while complete return occurred in the second week after treatment (Figure 2D)
