ABSTRACT
Olegário da Silva E, Thandile
Green K, Batista de Souza MS, Frederico Rodrigues Loureiro Bracarense AP., Case
study: ocular hemangiopericytoma in a female dog, Onl J Vet Res., 19(10): 647-652, 2015. A 7-year-old neutered female Sharpei
dog presented with an exophytic mass in the right
eye. The animal was submitted for total enucleation and the tumor was diagnosed
histopathologically as a hemangioperictyoma
originally from conjunctival tissue, involving the sclera and cornea. Forty
months after tumor excision there was no local recurrence. Ocular neoplasms can be classified
into adnexal/ocular surface, intraocular and orbital. This is a first report in veterinary literature of
an ocular surface hemangiopericytoma in dogs.
Key words: neoplasia,
perivascular wall tumor, ocular surface, dog.
