Abstract:
A two year old male Labrador Retriever was presented for sudden abdominal
10 distension. Abdominal ultrasonography revealed abundant abdominal fluid and an
hepatic mass, which was removed by total lobectomy. Histologic evaluation of the
mass supported a vascular hepatic hamartoma. Vascular hamartomas are rare
malformations in animals. Only two cases of vascular hepatic hamartomas have
been reported in the dog. This is the first recorded case of canine vascular hepatic
15 hamartoma treated surgically with a successful long term outcome.
