As a veterinarian, you will frequently encounter dogs with gastrointestinal masses. This presentation aims to provide valuable insights, starting with a clinical case example, to guide you in approaching such cases.
The primary focus of this presentation will be on the cancer biology, prognosis, diagnostics, and treatment options for the three most common gastrointestinal cancers in dogs: carcinomas, sarcomas (including gastrointestinal stromal tumours [GISTs] and leiomyosarcomas), and lymphomas. Additionally, non-cancer-related diseases like polyps and less common gastrointestinal cancers such as mast cell tumours and carcinoids, will also be discussed.
To enhance engagement, there will also be 'What is your diagnosis' questions related to some gastrointestinal tumours in dogs. This presentation is designed to benefit primary care and specialist veterinarians seeking to enhance their understanding of how to approach cases involving dogs with gastrointestinal masses in everyday clinical practice.
