Mandibular salivary gland plasma cell tumor in a dog.

An 8-year-old, intact male, Jack Russell Terrier dog was admitted with a 10-day history of an enlargement in the right submandibular area. Clinical examination revealed a subcutaneous, solid, firmly attached and painless mass (3 × 2 cm) located in the area of the right mandibular salivary gland, in an otherwise seemingly healthy dog. Fine-needle-aspiration cytology suggested a round cell neoplasia, most consistent with a plasma cell tumor.
