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.

Thalidomide, an angiogenesis inhibitor, has recently been used to treat malignant canine tumors. This study retrospectively investigated the adverse events (AEs) of thalidomide administered to tumor-bearing dogs. We investigated the pharmacokinetics of thalidomide after administration and the rate of body weight change before and after administration. The initial thalidomide dose was 5 mg/kg per os once daily, which was increased to 10 mg/kg once daily in dogs with no significant AEs. Pharmacokinetics were measured in four dogs after the 5 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg dose. We evaluated AEs related to clinical signs in 51 patients; 9/51 had lethargy, 6/51 had tremor, 4/51 had dizziness, 31/51 had decreased appetite, 8/51 had vomiting, and 16/49 had soft stool/diarrhea. We evaluated hematologic toxicity in 44 patients with grade 3 or higher adverse events; 1/44 had thrombocytopenia, 1/44 had increased blood urea nitrogen concentrations, and 5/44 had increased alanine aminotransferase activities. The mean thalidomide blood levels were Cmax=1.4 ± 0.7 μg/mL (Area under the curve [AUC] 0-24=8.5 ± 4.7 μg・hr /mL) and Cmax=3.2 ± 2.1 μg/mL (AUC0-24=22.0± 14.7 μg・hr/mL) in the 5 mg/kg and 10 mg/kg groups, respectively. The Cmax and AUC in the 10 mg/kg group were comparable to the effective blood concentrations seen in humans administered thalidomide. The weight fluctuation rates were assessed in 24 dogs approximately 1 month after the start of thalidomide administration; more than half showed weight maintenance or gain. Most AEs were clinically acceptable; however, peripheral nerve signs were seen in some dogs.

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.
