Abstract:
A 3-years-old female local dog was brought to the state veterinary hospital of Tezpur, Govt. of Assam, with genital organ bleeding; Serosanguineous exudate and a haemorrhagic cauliflower-shaped friable tumour on the external genitalia were discovered during a thorough clinical examination. Samples were collected from the genitalia using a glass slide for exfoliative cytology and whole blood for hematology. The case was classified as a canine transmissible veneral tumour based on clinical and analytical evidence. The tumour mass in the bitch was remitted after four weeks of chemotherapy with vincristine sulphate at a dose rate of 0.025 mg/ kg intravenously once weekly and supportive therapy with haemostat and multivitamin.
