Abstract
A young German shepherd dog was presented for a protruding vaginal mas s of one month's duration. Clinical appearance of the mass was suggest ive of a canine transmissible venereal tumour. Diagnosis was confirmed by cytology; a single drug chemotherapy regimen using vincristine was instituted. Regression was evident within seven days after the first treatment. Rilateral ovarian papillary cystadenocarcinoma was an incid ental finding after an elective ovariohysterectomy was performed.
