Summary: | A 7-year-old dog, Shih Tzu breed, intact male, came to an animal hospital in Thonburi area, Bangkok Province, Thailand with symptom of licking the left forefoot. Small lumps about 1×1×1cm (w×l×h) were found to be protruding around the left front toe. Surgical excision to remove the mass and subsequent histological examination identified the mass as sebaceous adenoma. After surgery and follow-up at 12 months, there were no obvious complications. Reports of this type concerning tumors in the paws tend to be rare. Furthermore, reports of tumor findings in this area remain unclear. |
