“…This feature was not evident in the reported case. However, the high cellular dissociation, with numerous individual cells, and the presence of cellular aggregates resembling microfollicles or rosettes, suggested an endocrine/neuroendocrine origin; moreover, it has been reported that medullary thyroid carcinomas may be devoid of naked nuclei 21 . Notably, neoplastic cells had a plasmacytoid morphology, which has been previously described in human medullary thyroid carcinomas 22 .…”

for the evaluation of a unilateral, mobile mass in the ventral neck region, which had been noticed 3 months earlier. Left mandibular and prescapular lymph nodes (LNs) were mildly enlarged at palpation. Physical examination was otherwise unremarkable. Ultrasound examination of the neck revealed a heterogeneously hypoechoic mass of 6 × 5 × 4 cm in size, with multiple hyperechoic foci of intraparenchymal mineralization located on the projection area of the left thyroid lobe with no apparent invasion of surrounding structures. Routine blood analysis (complete blood count, serum biochemistry, and clotting profile) was unremarkable. A total body computed tomography (TBCT) scan revealed a 7.3 × 4.6 × 4.4 cm left thyroid mass in close proximity to the trachea, left carotid artery, left jugular vein, and neck muscles without any apparent infiltration of those structures. Left mandibular and prescapular LNs appeared mildly enlarged. No distant metastases were identified. Due to the bleeding risk associated with the procedure, cytology was not performed.

“…Among the tumors that can arise in the nasal and paranasal cavities in dogs, neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) is rarely reported . Cytologically, neuroendocrine tumors often appear as naked nuclei embedded in a background of pale cytoplasm, and distinct cytoplasmic borders are rarely apparent . In the present case, carcinoma was considered the most likely diagnosis given the presence of occasional cohesive aggregates.…”

“…Of the three non‐diagnostic samples from two dogs, one sample had no yield and repeat aspiration may have yielded a result. Extramedullary haematopoiesis in the other adrenal aspirate from this dog can occur in association with myelolipoma or adrenocortical tumours ( Choi & Arndt ), and this dog was subsequently diagnosed with an adrenocortical adenoma. This result made phaeochromocytoma unlikely.…”
