  • Title: The surgical treatment of intra-nasal tumours in the dog.
    Author: Denny HR, Gibbs C, Kelly DF.
    Journal: Folia Vet Lat; 1975; 5(4):527-48. PubMed ID: 1230415.
    Abstract:
    This paper describes the surgical treatment of fourteen dogs with intranasal neoplasms. Affected dogs were from ten breeds and their average age was eight years. Clinical signs included unilateral nasal discharge epistaxis and sneezing; later there was deformity of the face and/or palate. Diagnosis of intra-nasal tumour was made by radiological examination and by exploratory rhinotomy. Surgical excision of the tumour mass was attempted in all cases. Histological examination of resected nasal tissue revealed five carcinomas, six sarcomas and three examples of benign polypoid hyperplasia of the nasal mucosa. The average post-operative survival time was 11 months with a range from two weeks to four years.
