    Summary

    This study classified 110 primary hepatic neoplasms in dogs, finding 55 hepatocellular carcinomas. Metastasis occurred in 61% of cases, suggesting a different canine liver cancer development compared to humans.

    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Pathology
    • Canine Oncology
    • Hepatobiliary Diseases

    Background:

    • Primary hepatic neoplasms are significant in canine medicine.
    • Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common type of liver cancer in dogs.
    • Understanding the diverse histo-architectural patterns of canine liver tumors is crucial for diagnosis and prognosis.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To classify primary hepatic neoplasms in dogs based on histo-architectural patterns.
    • To analyze the morphological variations within these canine liver tumors.
    • To investigate the incidence of metastasis in canine primary hepatic neoplasms.

    Main Methods:

    • Histopathological examination of 110 primary hepatic neoplasms from dogs.
    • Classification into 11 distinct histo-architectural groups.
    • Assessment of neoplastic hepatocyte morphology and presence of pleomorphic/giant cells.
    • Evaluation of metastasis in diagnosed cases.

    Main Results:

    • 55 hepatocellular carcinomas and 2 combined hepatocellular and cholangiocarcinomas were diagnosed.
    • Neoplasms were categorized into 11 groups including trabecular, pelioid, anaplastic, and clear cell patterns.
    • Neoplastic hepatocytes ranged from normal to highly anaplastic.
    • Metastasis was observed in 61% (35 of 57) of the evaluated cases.

    Conclusions:

    • Canine primary hepatic neoplasms exhibit diverse histo-architectural patterns.
    • The observed metastasis rate in dogs is lower than in humans, suggesting distinct pathogenetic mechanisms.
    • Further research into canine liver cancer pathogenesis is warranted.
