Abstract
An 8‐year‐old, female, neutered small Munsterlander presented with multiple ulcerative lesions. Some of these wounds had undermined violaceous borders, indicating lesions of pyoderma gangrenosum. Furthermore, a multicentric lymphoma was identified. The administration of chemotherapy and both systemic and topical immunosuppressive treatments resulted in the complete remission of all symptoms for approximately 6 months. However, the dog had to be euthanased due to a possible recurrence of both diseases, characterised by the reappearance of comparable skin lesions, swollen lymph nodes in the peripheral areas and a decline in overall health.
期刊介绍:
Vet Record Case Reports is an online resource that publishes articles in all fields of veterinary medicine and surgery so that veterinary professionals, researchers and others can easily find important information on both common and rare conditions. Articles may be about a single animal, herd, flock or other group of animals managed together. Common cases that present a diagnostic, ethical or management challenge, or that highlight aspects of mechanisms of injury, pharmacology or histopathology are deemed of particular educational value. All articles are peer reviewed and copy edited before publication.
