Issue Date: | 2000 | Publisher: | 0300-9858 | Journal: | Veterinary Pathology | Abstract: | A cutaneous melanocytoma-acanthoma in a 2-year-old female German Shepherd Dog was characterized by the presence of two populations of neoplastic cells: epithelial and melanocytic. The epithelial component consisted of nests of well-differentiated stratified squamous epithelium closely associated with neoplastic melanocytes. The epithelial cells immunoreacted with both monoclonal and polyclonal anti-cytokeratin antibodies, and immunoreaction to S-100 protein and vimentin was observed in the melanocytic cells. This rare pigmented skin neoplasm of the dog apparently has a benign behavior. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10553/43385 | ISSN: | 0300-9858 | Source: | Veterinary Pathology [ISSN 0300-9858], v. 37, p. 268-271 |
