Abstract

Canine Transmissible Venereal Tumor is a contagious disease, usually found in the external genital mucosa of dogs of both sexes, however, it can be found in extragenital areas such as the respiratory system and subcutaneous tissue. This study aims to report a rare case of TVT due to its location in the nasal septa, with involvement also in the oral region of a male, mixed breed dog, with a history, respiratory rales, inspiratory dyspnea, dysphagia, as well as present the clinical conduct of this case. The diagnosis was possible through clinical evaluation, radiographic examination and confirmation of TVT through cytological examination. In the cytological examination, the presence of round cells with vacuolated cytoplasm can be observed, suggesting a transmissible venereal tumor. The radiographic examination showed osteolysis of the nasal bone and maxillary alveolar bone and of the turbinate apart, absence of canine and left premolars. We opted for chemotherapy with vincristine and the prognosis for tumor remission is favorable. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
