Abstract
Two cases of neoplasia occurred in two adult Siberian weasels (Mustela sibirica) in a game reserve in southern Lower Saxony, Germany. The first case, a male weasel, showed an enlargement of the right testicle, which was surgically removed. The tumour was classified as an interstitial cell tumour. One year after surgery, the male weasel died by accident and revealed tumour lesions of uncertain histogenesis within the abdominal cavity and the spleen at necropsy. The second case, a female animal, became suspicious by a dermal mass in the upper left hind limb, which was also surgically excised. Pathological examinations revealed a fibrosarcoma that recurred twice after removal of the original mass. These two cases of neoplasia in the Siberian weasel are demonstrated with regard to clinical aspects and discussed on the basis of their pathomorphological features.
