Zusammenfassung

Bei einer 9 Jahre alten Mischlingshündin wurde ein akutes, unilaterales Othämatom diagnostiziert. Es gab weder klinisch noch anamnestisch einen Hinweis auf eine Ursache des Othämatoms. Im Rahmen der diagnostischen Aufarbeitung wurden eine hochgradige Hyperglobulinämie und eine hochgradige Thrombozytopenie nachgewiesen. Ursächlich hierfür war ein multiples Myelom. Dies ist der erste Fallbericht über einen Hund mit Othämatom als Folge einer Koagulopathie bedingt durch ein multiples Myelom.

Abstract

An acute, unilateral othematoma was diagnosed in a 9-year-old mixed-breed dog. There was no clinical or anamnestic evidence for the cause of the othematoma. During diagnostic work-up, marked hyperglobulinemia and marked thrombocytopenia were detected. This was a consequence of a multiple myeloma. This is the first case report of a dog with othematoma secondary to coagulopathy associated with multiple myeloma.
