  • Title: Cardiac rhabdomyoma in a juvenile fallow deer (Dama dama).
    Author: Kolly C, Bidaut A, Robert N.
    Journal: J Wildl Dis; 2004 Jul; 40(3):603-6. PubMed ID: 15465735.
    Abstract:
    A cardiac rhabdomyoma is described in a 6-wk-old captive fallow deer (Dama dama) that died suddenly without previous clinical signs. The tumor was characterized by multiple nodules composed of large atypical vacuolated myoblastic cells. As previously reported in humans and other animal species, there is compelling evidence that the cardiac rhabdomyoma is a congenital developmental anomaly rather than a true neoplasm. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a cardiac tumor and a rhabdomyoma in a cervid species.
