Subcutaneous Fibrosarcoma in the Occipital Region with Nuchal Crest Adhesion in a 5-month-old Dog

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

A 5-month-old castrated male Bichon Frisé was presented with a subcutaneous mass on the occipital region.
Anisocytosis, anisokaryosis, and binucleation were observed on the cytology, and the suspected diagnosis was sarcoma.
There were no metastatic lesions on radiography or computed tomography. Surgical resection was performed andfibrosarcoma was diagnosed by histopathology and immunohistochemistry. This is a very rare case of a spontaneouslyoccurring subcutaneous fibrosarcoma in a small breed puppy.
