    Area of Science:

    • Veterinary Medicine
    • Oncology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Lymphangioma is a rare, benign neoplastic proliferation of lymphatic vessels.
    • Understanding its occurrence in domestic animals is crucial for diagnosis and treatment.

    Observation:

    • Four canine patients presented with lymphangioma.
    • Lesions were identified in diverse anatomical locations: nasopharynx, retroperitoneum, axilla, and medial thigh.

    Findings:

    • Histopathological diagnosis confirmed lymphangioma in all cases.
    • The benign nature of the tumor was consistent across all presentations.

    Implications:

    • Surgical excision and marsupialization are viable treatment options for canine lymphangioma.
    • This case series highlights the importance of considering lymphangioma in dogs with localized swellings.
