Abstract
Multiple subcutaneous swellings and discharging sinuses were a result of steatitis in three dogs. The steatitis in each case was thought to be associated with a pancreatic carcinoma. The association with pancre atic neoplasia had been suspected in life in only one dog but was conf irmed at necropsy in each case. Circulating levels of pancreatic enzym es were increased in the one dog in which they were measured.
