Abstract

Ocular neoplasias can compromise eyesight and consequently the quality of life of the animals, are common conditions in the small animal clinic that require treatment and rapid diagnosis in order to achieve an efficient therapeutic response. Hemangioma is a benign vascular endothelial neoplasm with no peripheral invasion and may be associated with a high incidence of solar radiation. This paper reports the clinical case of a male Pit Bull dog, treated at the Unibave Veterinary Hospital (HVU), with a conjunctival nodule. The treatment was surgical dissection, with wide margins, with the aim of eliminating the entire tumor mass and guaranteeing a surgical margin free of tumor cells. The dissected sample was referred for histological evaluation and resulted in the diagnosis of hemangioma. The surgical treatment was successful, and the patient obtained clinical improvement, without complications in the trans and postoperative period.
