Mixed medullary and follicular cell thyroid carcinoma in a dog

A 12-y-old, castrated male Weimaraner dog was presented for a wellness examination. A 7-cm, firm mass was palpated on the left, ventral, mid-lateral neck. The neck mass was removed surgically and submitted for histopathology. A thyroid carcinoma was diagnosed based on microscopic examination. Immunohistochemistry for chromogranin-A, calcitonin, and thyroglobulin identified dual immunoreactivity of the latter two, and a final diagnosis was of a well-differentiated, compact, mixed medullary and follicular cell thyroid carcinoma. These neoplasms are rare in humans and have not been reported in dogs, to our knowledge.
