Successful Management of Transmissible Venereal Tumor in a Bitch using Doxorubicin - A Case Report

摘要

A two year old intact mongrel female was presented with the history of ulcerated and hemorrhagic wound at the tail region, growth at the vaginal passage and just above the left eye. The tail was amputated. The FNAC and histopathological examination of the growth confirmed it to be Transmissible Venereal Tumor (TVT). It was treated with Vincristine sulfate weekly at 0.025 mg/kg b.wt. intravenously for 5 weeks but the condition was not subsided. Then the animal was treated with doxorubicin at lmg/kg b.wt. once in 21 days for 3 times and the animal made an uneventful recovery.
