Adenocarcinoma of the nictitans gland in a dog
Abstract
The case of a five-year-old spayed female French Bulldog with a mass in the right third eyelid is described. Ultrasonography and computed tomography were used to identify this pathological lesion and to visualise its morphology and extent. The mass was removed and submitted for histopathological examination. A final diagnosis of adenocarcinoma of the nictitans gland was made. In the discussion we compare the presented case with the available literature. Only limited information is published about this pathology.
