Description

A 4-year-old male, German Shepherd dog showed staggering gait and hyperesthesia in his hip, and was euthanatized for pathological examination.<BR>Main macroscopical findings were bilateral, endo-and periosteal hyperostosis at the diaphysis of the humerus, radius, ulna, and femur. Histologically, a multicentric proliferation of cancellous osteoid or immature bone of various density was observed at the diaphysis of the bones. The foci frequently fused to each other and showed osteoclastic bone absorption.<BR>Significant changes other than the osseous lesions were swelling of chief cells of the parathyroid gland and c-cells of the thyroid gland, and visceral and cerebral lesions attributable to Dirofilaria immitis infection.<BR>The diagnosis of canine panosteitis of delayed onset was made based on the pathological and clinical findings.
