In
this study, we aimed to evaluate histopathologically the case of osteosarcoma
detected in an Belgian Malinois race dog. The material of the study consisted
of a 8.5-year-old Belgian Malinois race female dog weighing 30 kg. With the complaints
of abdominal distention, difficulty in breathing, loss of appetite, fatigue,
the dog brought to the Veterinary Faculty of Kafkas University Animal Hospital
died on the way and was sent to the Department of Pathology for necropsy. In
the follow-up, some of the tissue samples taken from the systemic necropsy
animal were determined in the decalcified solution and another part in the
buffered formaldehyde solution. Following routine procedures, 5 μm thick
sections were taken from the prepared paraffin blocks for Hematoxylin Eosin
staining. To determine the histopathological changes, the sections were
examined by light microscope. In the light of the histopathological findings,
osteosarcoma was diagnosed in the brain and lung metastatic foci.
