Abstract:
The incidence of primary renal neoplasia in animals is quite low. Carcinomas are the most common primary renal tumors of dogs, cattle, and sheep. Among rabbit tumors, only uterine adenocarcinomas occur more frequently than do embryonal nephromas. However, spontaneous renal cell carcinomas in laboratory rabbits have only been reported once previously. We here report a second occurrence of a renal cell carcinoma in the laboratory rabbit.
