Abstract:
A rare presentation of an extraskeletal osteosarcoma, suspected to have evolved from chronic inflammation associated with a benign hair follicle tumor in a dog is described. The patient was treated with surgical excision, carboplatin, and toceranib. The patient had an extended disease-free interval and a survival time of 45.4 months.
