Combined Use of Surgery and Radiation in the Treatment of an Intradural Myxoid Liposarcoma in a Dog

From the Clinique Vétérinaire de référence en chirurgie Baron-Valin (Rodenas, Valin, Baron), 5 rue fernet, 94700, Maisons Alfort, France; and the Centre Radiotherapie-scanner (Devauchelle, Delisle), 7 Avenue Charles de Gaulle, 94700, Maisons Alfort, France.

An intradural-extramedullary myxoid liposarcoma of the high cervical spine was diagnosed in a 9-year-old, spayed female Cavalier King Charles spaniel that was presented for a 2-month history of cervical pain and tetraparesis. Radiation therapy applied after surgery resulted in complete remission of the neurological deficits. The tumor recurred 18 months after surgical excision. A second surgery and another course of radiotherapy again resulted in complete remission of the clinical signs. The dog was euthanized 11 months after the second surgery because of tumor recurrence.
