2greysdad Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Our 9 year old greyhound is 10 months post amputation due to osteo. She was just diagnosed with a very large lung mass that does not look like a typical lung tumor (we did x-rays, ultrasound and a ct scan). The rad report describes it as a single homogenous primarily fat attenuating mass. Does anyone have any experience with something like this? The vets we spoke to thus far can only tell us is that it's highly unusual. They don't believe it's a primary lung tumor or a matastatic cancer caused by the osteo. We are meeting with our regular surgeon for his opinion on Friday. Our oncologist is under quarantine so I have no idea when I can get in touch with her.

JohnF Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Nothing like that has ever happened to one of mine, so good luck/prayers etc for your vet consult. Hopefully it will be confirmed as benign. The paper in this link may be informative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
