Abstract

The ovarian adenocarcinoma represents 1.2% of diagnosed neoplasms in female dogs; affects one or both ovaries and can be a finding during elective ovario-hysterectomies. In dogs, neoplasmas of the ovarian epithelium emerge from invaginations of epithelial subsurface structures in the ovary capsule. However, this disease is poorly described in the literature. Thus, it was aimed to report the case of a 13-year-olf-female dog showing anemia, azotemia, bloody vaginal secretion and hematometry/pyometra as presumptive diagnosis through abdominal echography. The patient was stabilized and was submitted to a therapeutic ovario-hysterectomy. The hystopathological diagnosis showed uterine adenomyosis, noncystic glandular hyperplasia and ovarian adenocarcinoma papillary subtype. After the surgical procedure, the patient was monitored for five months and showed complete remission of clinical signs with no evidence of metastasis.
