A case of two different tumors in the heart of a dog. J Vet Diagn Invest
20:365–368 (2008). Histological examination revealed the coexistence of tubular
adenocarcinoma and an undifferentiated sarcoma in the myocardium.
Immunohistochemical staining of the sarcoma cells was negative for cytokeratin, desmin,
and smooth muscle myosin, thus excluding their epithelial or myoepithelial origin, as well
as an origin
from smooth muscles cells. These findings, together with the coexpression of vimentin
and a–smooth muscle actin, suggested that the sarcoma was derived from
myofibroblasts.
Fonsecaea pedrosoi skin infection in a dog. J Vet Diagn Invest 20:379–381 (2008).
Chromoblastomycosis, phaeohyphomycosis, and eumycotic mycetoma are a group of
systemic and cutaneous diseases caused by dematiaceous fungi.1 Dematiaceous fungi are
characterized by a brown to black pigmentation of their hyphae and are ubiquitous in
nature. Most common species encountered in disease conditions include
Fonsecaea spp., Alternaria spp., Bipolaris spp., Cladophialophora spp., and Curvularia
spp.3 This report describes a phaeohyphomycotic condition caused by Fonsecaea pedrosoi
infection in a dog.
