Resumo
Multiple myeloma is a neoplasm characterized by the proliferation of clonal Blymphocytes in the bone marrow, resulting in disordered production ofimmunoglobulins, progressively promoting bone destruction, renal failure,hematopoietic suppression, resulting in several clinical signs in dogs. This work aims toreport a case of multiple myeloma in a 11 - year - old female poodle, who was attendedat a veterinary clinic In the radiographic examination, bone lysis was observed in thedistal third of the femur, which led to the clinical suspicion of bone neoplasia, initiallyconfirmed by cytological analysis of the bone marrow of the site affected by thepresence of atypical plasma cells. The animal was then referred for surgery to performovarian resection (OSH) and removal of a bone biopsy fragment, which can not beperformed. The clinical and cytological diagnoses associated with the surgicalprocedure were essential for the prognosis of the patient.(AU)
