Havingrapidly evolving and can cause serious systemic changes, it is necessary to use instant protocols, such as the useof aglepristone an antiprogestogen. This study aims to report a case of FMH with aglepristone-based therapy. Acat mongrel, with 9 months old, nulliparous, who received a contraceptive dose, showed an increase in thethoracic right mammary gland M1. The history and physical examination indicated the diagnosis of FMH. Thetherapy established was aglepristone in 3 doses (10mg / kg) every 24 hours. The result was total remission ofsymptoms. The use of aglepristone proved to be effective in the treatment of FMH even without castration.(AU)
