Cytogenetic aspects of a canine breast carcinosarcoma - a case report

This study searched a rare and aggressive type of cancer in dogs and humans, the breast carcinosarcoma. Both clinical and pathological traits of mammary carcinosarcomas in dogs are similar to humans, such as infrequent occurrence, fast tumor growth, and unfavorable prognosis when compared to carcinomas. Other possible alterations include chromosomal abnormalities th.. Read More»

Direct preparation protocol to obtain mitotic chromosomes from canine mammary tumors

    C.S.D. Morais, P.R.A.M. Affonso, J.A. Bitencourt and A.A. Wenceslau

Currently, mammary neoplasms in female canines are a serious problem in veterinary clinics. In addition, the canine species is an excellent disease model for human oncology because of the biological and genetic similarities between the species. Cytogenetics has allowed further study of the characterization of neoplasms in canines. We hypothesized that the use of a direct preparation protocol fo.. Read More»
