Objective- This study refers to the role of ultrasonography in the diagnosis of mammary gland tumor in bitches as a complementary diagnostic method and its ultimate goal is to evaluate the results of mammography with the positive results of ultrasonography. Design- Prospective study. Animals- 12 German Shepherd bitches with swollen mass in the mammary gland region (group I) and 12 h...

AbstractEpidermal inclusion cysts are uncommon in the breast, but the consequences can besevere when these cysts occur in the breast parenchyma. Here, we report two suchcases. The patient in case 1 was an 37-year-old woman with a 3-cm palpable mass inthe right breast. Mammography revealed a round and smoothly outlined mass, whichindicated a benign tumor, and sonography showed an irregularly sha...

Paget’s disease of the nipple is an unusual manifestation of breast cancer. Most cases of mammary Paget`s disease are associated with an invasive or in situ breast tumor, even with no mass observed in mammography imaging. Very rarely does Paget’s disease occur in the absence of any underlying neoplasia .Herein, we report an 82-year-old woman with an unusual presentation of mammary Paget’s disea...

The effect of the mammotropic tumor, MtTF4, on the growth and biochemistry of the transplantable autonomous R3230AC mammary adenocarcinoma was investigated. The MtTF4 tumor, which secretes prolactin, growth hormone, and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) did not significantly alter the growth rate of the mammary tumor but did increase glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) activity in the R32...

Background: Diagnostic molecular marker studies are in vogue to have insight of most prevalent animal diseases including cancer.Objectives: Gene expression profi ling of pro and anti-apoptotic genes was conducted in dog Lymphoma, CTVT, SCC, granuloma, perianal adenocarcinoma and mammary tumors.Materials and Methods: Cancerous tissue...

Sera of C3H/Z/Dm mice bearing spontaneous mam mary tumors, sera of apparently normal C3H/Z/Dm mice at different ages, and a serum of an A/Dm mouse with spontaneous breast cancer were tested by the indirect immunoperoxidase method against cells of C3H/HeJ spon taneous mammary tumor line constantly producing type B or mouse mammary tumor virus particles. The sera were also tested against cells of...

Untreated LAF1 mice used in the present series (which are generally considered to be free of the mammary tumor agent) did not develop mammary adenocarcinomas spontaneously. Treatment with methylcholanthrene also failed to produce mammary tumors in this strain in the absence of hormonal stimulation of the mammary tissue (though it did produce leukemia and squamous carcinomas). Continuous stimula...
