Factory dog. Male, not neutered, 5 years
The dog came with a large subcutaneous swelling. Abscess or tumour or both?  X rays done.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Dog was not co-operative during X-ray to get the cranial dorsal views.

No sedation as he may have heartworm disease.

Dr Daniel excised the tumour measuring 5" x 7" x 3 ". A fat cell tumour or mast cell tumour?

Owner did not want histology.
