A case of Oral Papillary Squamous Carcinoma in a dog treated with rostral maxillectomy

This type of Carcinoma is affecting more the young dogs and carries a significant danger of invasion in the surrounding tissues, even bone tissue. After complete excision recurrence is not likely and there are no reports of distant metastasis. Because it is still a type of carcinoma, excision is often involving the bone in order to achieve complete excision and clean margins. This is a case of a large breed dog treated with rostral maxillectomy, complete excision, clean margins and no recurrence.
