  • Title: Squamous cell carcinoma of the corneoscleral limbus in a dog.
    Author: Ward DA, Latimer KS, Askren RM.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1992 May 15; 200(10):1503-6. PubMed ID: 1612986.
    Abstract:
    Squamous cell carcinoma is an uncommon tumor of the cornea in dogs. A 12-year-old Shih Tzu with a history of chronic keratoconjunctivitis sicca was diagnosed as having squamous cell carcinoma of the corneoscleral limbus. The lesion was treated by surgical resection and cryotherapy. One year after surgery, multiple tumors, apparently unrelated to the first tumor, appeared on the same cornea. Keratoconjunctivitis sicca may have predisposed the dog to corneal squamous cell carcinoma development.
