Kenny A2352135 is a friendly, 12-year-old, intact male, 55lbs, HW negative, who has a large mass on the left side of his face. Kenny has poor body condition (BCS 2/9) with generalized muscle wasting. Overgrown nails and very flakey skin. Prolonged skin tent consistent with marked dehydration. Moderate brown exudate in both ears. Gums light pink and patient hypersalivating. Severe dental disease with very heavy calculus, severe gingival recession, bone loss of rostral hard palate, hair and debris caked into exposed furcation’s, multiple areas along maxillary gumline connect with nasal sinuses, inner cheeks and gingiva ulcerated in multiple spots from rubbing on calculus. Large semi-firm mass above left eye with an almost lobulated shape - mass easily the size of a fist or larger (measurements not taken). Left eye sunken, vision impaired to absent in the eye. Samples of mass submitted to IDEXX for cytology.
Monitor appetite closely and offer canned food due to severity of mouth condition. Patient was very sweet prior to sedation and non-reactive to X-rays show no obvious thoracic metastasis, slight dorsal deviation of trachea, multiple areas of spondylosis along proximal lumbar spine and LS junction, osteophyte formation in both stifles, both hips and along caudal margins of pelvis, decreased acetabular coverage bilaterally. Skull radiographs show decreased bone density of mandible, especially rostrally (chronic infection vs active osteomyelitis). Large area of decreased opacity caudal to canine consistent with invasive fistulae, v/d view of skull is positioned slightly off but mass does not appear to have bony involvement or have caused destruction - keep review date open for second DVM opinion.
If you can help Kenny, please let us know.
