Article Synopsis
- The study examined the stability of epidermal growth factor (EGF), fibronectin, and alpha(α)-2-macroglobulin in canine serum under different storage conditions.
- After 1 week at 4°C, EGF levels decreased significantly, while α-2-macroglobulin levels increased; however, no changes were noted for fibronectin.
- Overall, EGF and fibronectin remained stable for 3 months at -20°C, suggesting that storing samples at this temperature is effective for preserving these factors.
A 9-year-old golden retriever dog was diagnosed with a left retrobulbar mass. Fine-needle aspirations and incisional biopsies resulted in discordant diagnoses: myxosarcoma/myxoma or rhadomyosarcoma, respectively. Immunohistochemistry following exenteration allowed definitive diagnosis of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor with fibromyxomatous differentiation.
