Retroperitoneal hemangiosarcoma (RPHSA) is a rare tumor in dogs with a poorly understood prognosis after surgery. The objectives of this study were to investigate the clinical features and prognosis of canine RPHSA that had undergone surgical resection. In this single-center, retrospective cohort study, we reviewed the medical records of dogs that had undergone surgical resection for retroperitoneal tumors and received a histopathologic diagnosis of HSA between 2005 and 2021. The median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were 77.5 days and 168 days, respectively. In the present study, canine RPHSA had an aggressive biological behavior similar to visceral HSA. Further studies in larger canine populations are needed to evaluate the efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy.

An 11-year-old neutered male Domestic Shorthair cat presented with a 3-month history of hypoglycemia, two episodes of seizure, and intermittent tick-like signs. Serum biochemistry revealed severe hypoglycemia associated with high insulin concentrations. Dynamic abdominal computed tomography (CT) indicated two pancreatic masses, which were enhanced most during the late arterial phase but had different degrees and variations of attenuation. Partial pancreatectomy was performed. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry confirmed that one mass was an insulinoma and the other was an ectopic splenic tissue, consistent with the differences in imaging findings. When an intrapancreatic lesion with hyper-attenuation on dynamic abdominal CT is detected, not only insulinoma or metastasis of malignancies but also intrapancreatic accessory spleen (IPAS) should be considered as differential diagnoses.

Primary hepatic neuroendocrine tumors (PHNETs) are rare in dogs, and limited information exists about the treatment of these tumors. A 12-year-old castrated male French bulldog was presented to our clinic with gastrointestinal signs. Diagnostic tests revealed increased hepatic enzyme levels, a mass in the hepatic quadrate lobe, multiple intrahepatic nodules, and enlarged hepatic hilar lymph nodes. The liver mass was diagnosed cytologically as a malignant epithelial tumor suspected to be of neuroendocrine origin. The dog was treated with single-agent toceranib phosphate (TOC) and survived 25.1 months after the initial presentation. On necropsy, a liver mass was found and was subsequently diagnosed as a PHNET on histopathology. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of long-term survival in a dog with PHNET treated with TOC.
