“…Em um estudo realizado em um abatedouro na Grã-Bretanha, foram encontrados 25 tumores primários de pulmão ao exame de 1 milhão e 300 mil bovinos (ANDERSON & SANDISON, 1968). Dentre os neoplasmas pulmonares que já foram relatados nos bovinos, estão os blastomas pulmonares (KELLEY et al, 1994), o carcinoma de células pequenas e anaplásicas do pulmão (PIERCY et al, 1993) e os carcinomas bronquioloalveolares (OKADA et al, 1998). Entretanto, a maioria dos tumores pulmonares encontrados nos bovinos são adenocarcinomas.…”

“…Systolic murmur and tachycardia may be observed when there is cardiac impairment due to metastasis (7). In other affected species, clinical signs tend to be similar (2,8,11,16). The most important macroscopic and microscopic findings observed in this case, such as splenomegaly, hemolysis, hemoglobinuria, red pulp hyperplasia, hemosiderosis, nephrosis, intra-erythrocyte parasitic structures compatible with Babesia sp., are indicative of equine babesiosis.…”

“…Primary pulmonary carcinomas have already been described in equines (4, 7), bovines (8,16), rodents (1), dogs (2) and cats (13). Although considered a disease of older animals (12), lung carcinomas have been reported in equines between 4 (7) and 23 years (4).…”

“…In equines, metastasis has been reported to lymph nodes, mediastinum, adrenal glands, heart, blood vessels, kidneys, muscles and distant lymph nodes (7,14). In bovines, masses tend to be multiple, up to 10 cm in diameter, eventually forming a large mass encompassing the mediastinal and epigastric lymph nodes and part of the liver (8,16). Frequently, pulmonary carcinomas in bovines are incidental findings at slaughterhouses (8,19).…”

Primary lung neoplasms are infrequent in veterinary medicine, particularly in large animals. The most frequently affected species are dogs and cats. These neoplasias are usually malignant and the adenocarcinoma type is the most frequent. This paper describes a case of pulmonary adenocarcinoma in a mare, including its pathological and immunohistochemical features. The animal had natural death and was submitted for necropsy. Diffuse jaundice, splenomegaly due to red pulp hyperplasia, pulmonary edema and congestion were observed. Cytological evaluation of the spleen revealed intracytoplasmatic structures in erythrocytes, compatible with Babesia sp. Histopathology of the lung revealed a neoplastic proliferation of epithelial cells, forming acinar and tubular structures supported by a fibrovascular stroma. Immunohistochemistry of such lesions was positive for cytokeratin and napsin A, negative for vimentin and thyroid transcription factor 1, corroborating the diagnosis of adenocarcinoma. Lung carcinomas in equines are described in animals ranging from four to 23 years old, without breed or sex predisposition. Clinical signs, when present, are related to the compromise of respiratory function, which was not observed in the present case. Pulmonary neoplasms must be considered among the diagnostics of chronic respiratory diseases. Histopathological and immunohistochemistry exams are highly valuable for classification of primary lung neoplasms.
