A canine patient was diagnosed with a rare spindle cell sarcoma originating from the ureter. The tumor recurred in the abdominal wall five months later, leading to euthanasia.

Area of Science:

Veterinary Pathology
Canine Oncology
Surgical Oncology

Background:

Intra-abdominal masses in dogs can present diagnostic challenges.
Spindle cell sarcomas are a group of tumors with diverse origins.
Ureteral tumors are uncommon in veterinary medicine.

Observation:

A five-year-old female spayed Labrador retriever presented with an intra-abdominal mass.
Exploration revealed a large mass originating from the right ureter.
A right ureteronephrectomy was performed for mass removal.

Findings:

Histopathology confirmed the ureteral mass as a spindle cell sarcoma.
The patient developed a second tumor in the left abdominal wall five months post-surgery.
The spindle cell sarcoma demonstrated aggressive behavior with metastasis or recurrence.

Implications:

This case highlights the importance of thorough histopathological evaluation for intra-abdominal masses.
Spindle cell sarcomas, even when surgically removed, can have a high rate of recurrence or metastasis.
Early detection and advanced imaging may be crucial for managing such aggressive tumors in dogs.
