  • Title: Metastatic mast cell tumour in a dog presenting with spinal pain.
    Author: Cooper MA, Bennett PF, Laverty PH.
    Journal: Aust Vet J; 2009 Apr; 87(4):157-9. PubMed ID: 19335472.
    Abstract:
    The clinical, advanced imaging and surgical features of a case of canine extradural mast cell tumour are presented. This rare location has only been reported once before as a primary lesion, although the present case may be a metastatic lesion. Given the frequent occurrence and treatment of cutaneous mast cell tumours in dogs, the finding of spinal metastasis is an important reminder to consider metastatic neoplasia in cases of previously treated cancers presenting with spinal pain.
