Splenic fibroistiocytic nodules in a bitch: case report

Multiple fibrohistiocytic nodules in the spleen of a 7-year-old female Rottweiler were reported. The diagnosis was made by histology and immunohistochemistry; cells were positive for ED1, CD18, vimentin and lysozyme. The dog was euthanatized three months after the tumor was diagnosed, due to severe clinical signs.
