Neoplasias mamárias em cadelas e gatas

Abstract

O estudo das neoplasias mamárias tem um elevado interesse clínico e científico pois além de constituírem uma das neoplasias mais frequentes nas cadelas e nas gatas, muitos dos resultados obtidos são extrapoláveis para a espécie humana. A presente dissertação teve como objectivo caracterizar uma amostra de cadelas e gatas com neoplasias mamárias, apresentadas à consulta no ano de 2008, no Hospital Veterinário de Almada. De seguida procedeu-se à análise estatística da amostra populacional, de modo a descrever os animais afectados e a relacionar as características morfológicas e histopatológicas recolhidas com a informação presente nas referências bibliográficas pesquisadas. A caracterização foi feita com base na espécie, raça, idade, apresentação clínica, factores ambientais, classificação histológica, metastização regional e à distância e na sobrevivência após mastectomia. Na amostra investigada foram identificadas 19 neoplasias mamárias: 13 em cadelas; 6 em gatas. Este estudo identificou os tumores mamários como as neoplasias mais comuns ( 50%) em ambas as espécies e calculou uma prevalência de 4 tumores mamários em cada 100 fêmeas em risco, quer em cadelas quer em gatas da amostra populacional estudada. O incentivo à castração precoce das fêmeas e à sensibilização dos proprietários para os riscos envolvidos e para as possibilidades terapêuticas desta patologia são fundamentais e urgentes.

ABSTRACT - MAMMARY NEOPLASIAS IN BITCHES AND QUEENS - The study of mammary gland neoplasias has a high clinical and scientific interest, since it represents one of the most common neoplasias in bitches and queens. Moreover many results can be extrapolated to the human species. The aim of this dissertation was to characterize a sample of bitches and queens with mammary tumours, presented to consultation in 2008 at the Hospital Veterinário de Almada. A statistic analysis was done to describe the affected animals and to compare the tumour’s morphological and histological characteristics with published information The characterization of the sample was made for species, breed, age, clinical presentation, environmental factors, histological classification, regional and distant metastasis and post mastectomy survival. Nineteen mammary gland neoplasias were identified: 13 in bitches; 6 in queens. This study found that the mammary gland tumours were the most common neoplasias ( 50%) in both species. A similar annual prevalence of 4 per 100 females in risk, either for bitches or for queens was estimated on the studied sample. The incentive for early neutering the females and owners education about the risks involved and the treatment potential are essential and a pressing need.
