HISTOPATHOLOGY FULL
History:

Mammary tissue. A 4-year-old intact bitch that presented for spay,
but was found to have a plum-sized (7 cm), firm mass on the left
caudal abdominal gland. Was not noted a month ago by 2 different vets,
so must be a fast-growing tumour.
–
Received: 0.8 cm tissue – all processed.

HISTOPATH REPORT:

DESCRIPTION/MICROSCOPIC FINDINGS/COMMENTS:

DESCRIPTION
The biopsy was hemi-sectioned and embedded in toto. The mass is an
area of mammary lobular hyperplasia. All acini are lined by plump
cuboidal epithelial cells with moderate amounts of vacuolated
eosinophilic cytoplasm, and they are all distended with eosinophilic
secretion. The surrounding stroma is mildly edematous and congested.
Affected tissue is at the cut borders of these sections.

MICROSCOPIC FINDINGS
1.MAMMARY LOBULAR HYPERPLASIA

COMMENTS
Good news! This is a benign lesion of mammary lobular hyperplasia.
The prognosis following excision and ovariohysterectomy is good.
