First report of primary testicular leiomyosarcoma in two dogs

CONCLUSIONS: To the authors knowledge these are the first cases of primary testicular sarcoma reported in the canine species. However, even rare, these tumours deserve to be considered in routine diagnosis when a testicular spindle cell tumour is observed. The immunohistochemical panel applied was useful to distinguish the present tumours from undifferentiated Sertoli cell tumours confirming the diagnosis of leiomyosarcoma.PMID:37525233 | DOI:10.1186/s12917-023-03658-5
