  • Title: Membrana nictitans gland cyst in a dog.
    Author: Latimer CA, Wyman M, Szymanski C, Werling K.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1983 Nov 01; 183(9):1003-5, 965. PubMed ID: 12002571.
    Abstract:
    A cyst involving the gland of the 3rd eyelid was removed from an 8-year-old dog. Clinically the circumscribed mass resembled a pigmented neoplasm. Histologically the cyst was multiloculated, with homogeneous eosinophilic periodic acid-Schiff-positive content. Melanin pigment was present in epithelial cells and cystic lumens. Protective functions of the 3rd eyelid were retained following excisional biopsy.
