Two dogs were presented, each with a large solitary pulmonary mass, and cytology confirmed mast cell tumor (MCT) in each dog. One dog was euthanized following diagnosis. Thoracic computed tomography scan and exploratory thoracotomy of the second dog revealed a right pulmonary mass that would require a radical lung resection. The patient was euthanized and histopathology confirmed a poorly granulated MCT with characteristics suggestive of epitheliotropism, an uncommon finding with MCT. These represent the first reported cases of presumptive primary pulmonary MCT in dogs.
Mastocytome primaire pulmonaire présumé chez deux chiens. Deux chiens ont été présentés avec une volumineuse masse pulmonaire dont l'analyse cytopathologique confirma le diagnostic de mastocytome (MCT). L'un des chiens a été euthanasié suite au diagnostic. Un CT scan thoracique et une thoracotomie exploratrice du second chien ont révélé une masse pulmonaire droite nécessitant une résection pulmonaire radicale; le chien fut euthanasié. L'histopathologie a confirmé un MCT peu granulé avec des caractéristiques suggestives d'épithéliotropisme, une trouvaille inhabituelle lors de MCT. Il s'agit des premiers cas rapportés de MCT pulmonaires primaires présumés chez le chien.(Traduit par les auteurs).

The seropositivity of dogs to Borrelia burgdorferi, Anaplasma phagocytophilum, and Ehrlichia canis antibodies, and Dirofilaria immitis antigen was assessed in Canada. Borrelia burgdorferi had the highest seroprevalence, while that of Dirofilaria immitis has not changed significantly in the past 20 y. The risk for these vector-borne infectious agents in Canadian dogs is low but widespread with foci of higher prevalence.
