Two young female dogs were presented with a chronic history of persistent vulvar hemorrhage. Vaginoscopy was ultimately used to locate bleeding vaginal masses near the urethral papilla. In both cases, episiotomy was performed to resect the mass, and hemangioma was diagnosed histologically.

Adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD) is a rare autoinflammatory systemic disorder classically characterised by inflammatory polyarthritis, daily fevers and a transient asymptomatic salmon-pink maculopapular rash that typically arises with the onset of fevers.

This case highlights the importance of early recognition of diverse cutaneous manifestations of AOSD to facilitate timely diagnosis and treatment to improve disease outcomes.

Previous preclinical and clinical data suggest a potential synergy between immune checkpoint inhibitors and bevacizumab in rGCCC. Dostarlimab, a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1), combined with the anti-angiogenic bevacizumab, presents a novel therapeutic approach.
