Fatal haemorrhage and neoplastic thrombosis in a captive African lion ( Panthera leo ) with metastatic testicular sex cord–stromal tumour
2017
Background
The study of neoplasia in wildlife species contributes to the understanding of cancer biology, management practices, and comparative pathology. Higher frequencies of neoplasms among captive non-domestic felids have been reported most commonly in aging individuals. However, testicular tumours have rarely been reported. This report describes a metastatic testicular sex cord–stromal tumour leading to fatal haemorrhage and thrombosis in a captive African lion (Panthera leo).
