Abstract

<p>Sixty-four canine cases of transitional cell carcinoma treated with complete cystectomy were retrospectively analyzed for signalment, pathology findings, treatment modality and outcome. The mean age of onset (10.7 ± 2.2 years) and sex ratio (40 females and 24 males; 63.5% vs. 36.5%) were consistent with those previously reported. Mixed-breed dogs, shetland sheepdogs, beagles and possibly long-haired miniature dachshunds were overrepresented. The survival time ranged from 5 to 3,089 days with a median survival time of 205 days. The survival time differed significantly among the three groups of dogs with tumor invasion into the lamina propria, muscular layer and serosa of the bladder wall. These findings suggest that survival of 6 months or longer can be expected after a complete cystectomy and that this approach may be an effective treatment option for canine transitional cell carcinoma.</p>
