A 13-year-old, female, mixed-breed dog with a huge cranial mediastinal mass underwent radiotherapy (RT). On the following day, the dog presented with lethargy and anorexia. Hematological examination revealed elevated levels of blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, inorganic phosphorus, potassium, lactate dehydrogenase, creatine phosphokinase and aspartate aminotransferase, decreased calcium level, and metabolic acidosis. Urine output markedly decreased. The patient recovered with fluid therapy and diuretic therapy; however, died suddenly from an unknown cause 11 days after RT completion. Histopathological examination after necropsy showed thymoma in the cranial mediastinum and extensive tubular necrosis of both kidneys which may be due to RT-induced TLS. This report suggests that the risk of TLS should be evaluated in dogs with thymoma who undergo RT.

We examined whether multidrug resistant (MDR) canine lymphoma increases gene expression for platelet-derived growth factor receptor α (PDGFRα), vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2), and c-KIT, and whether toceranib phosphate (TOC) has potential as a treatment for MDR canine lymphoma. The clinical data showed that PDGFRα expression was higher in canine subjects with MDR T-cell lymphoma than in those with untreated T-cell lymphoma, and that c-KIT expression was greater in subjects with T-cell lymphoma than in those with B-cell lymphoma. TOC monotherapy was well tolerated without serious adverse effects, and two of the five subjects that received TOC exhibited partial responses. The data presented here could contribute to the assessment of TOC-based therapy for dogs with MDR or T-cell lymphoma.

Flow diverter (FD) stenting is expected to improve cranial nerve symptoms caused by aneurysms via the theoretical reduction of the mass effect by promoting spontaneous thrombosis through the flow diversion effect. However, the factors involved in symptom improvement after treatment remain unclear. This study was performed to identify factors for symptom improvement after FD stenting and the symptom improvement rate of each impaired cranial nerve. We retrospectively evaluated 33 patients who underwent FD stenting for symptomatic internal carotid artery aneurysms at our institution from January 2016 to June 2021. Twenty-three (69.7%) patients had resolved or improved symptoms after 1 year of treatment. The optic nerve was affected in 12 patients; the oculomotor nerve, in 16; the trigeminal nerve, in 2; and the abducens nerve, in 13. There was no statistically significant difference in the symptom improvement rate of each impaired cranial nerve. The patients were classified into the improved and nonimproved groups based on their symptoms after 1 year of treatment, and the factors related to the symptoms were analyzed. The time from onset to treatment was significantly shorter in the improved group than in the nonimproved group (197.1 and 800 days, respectively; p = 0.023). There were no significant differences in age, aneurysm diameter, adjunctive coil embolization, partial thrombosis, change in mass diameter on magnetic resonance imaging, or aneurysm occlusion rate on angiography between the two groups. These results suggest that early treatment after the onset of aneurysm-induced cranial neuropathies increases the likelihood of symptom improvement.
