Myeloid neoplasia in a dog.

A 4-year-old Scotch Collie bitch was presented for examination because of hyperthermia and anaemia. Haematological examination and bone marrow biopsy led to a diagnosis of myeloid neoplasia. At autopsy there was slight enlargement of the liver, spleen and some lymph nodes. Microscopic examination revealed extensive infiltration of these tissues by neoplastic myeloid cells.
