Maxillary Ameloblastic Carcinoma in an Alaskan Malamute
2007
A 3-year-old female Alaskan Malamute was submitted to the Veterinary Teaching Hospital of Madrid with a mass in the right maxilla. It was ulcerated, covered by a yellowish infected membrane, and painful. The histologic examination showed a neoplastic proliferation of palisading cells distributed irregularly in cords. The tumor was diagnosed as an ameloblastic carcinoma because of the histologic signs of malignancy, the aggressive behavior, and the absence of distal metastasis. This is the first description of an ameloblastic carcinoma in a dog.
