  • Title: Nasopharyngeal myxosarcoma in a Bengal tiger (Panthera tigris).
    Author: Shilton CM, Thompson MS, Meisner R, Lock B, Lindsay WA.
    Journal: J Zoo Wildl Med; 2002 Dec; 33(4):371-7. PubMed ID: 12564536.
    Abstract:
    An 18- to 25-yr-old intact female Bengal tiger (Panthera tigris) was diagnosed antemortem and postmortem with nasopharyngeal myxosarcoma metastatic to the lung, chronic lymphoplasmacytic otitis media, and lymphoplasmacytic and eosinophilic stomatitis. Myxosarcomas are rare in domestic animals and seldom metastasize; this tumor has not been previously reported in an exotic felid. Computed tomography of the skull was used during the diagnoses.
