A 5-year-old Saanen goat kept in Tottori University suffered from hypochromic anemia, fever, leukocytosis (mostly neutrophils), rapid hypoalimentation, and debility. It was subjected to various kinds of treatment, but died eventually about a month later.
Autopsy revealed that tumors had been produced in the liver and large intestine, and phlebangioma and thrombosis in the posterior vena cava and other veins. Histological examination revealed the original occurrence of adenocarcinoma in the cecum. Multiple large lesions were seen in the liver and presumed to have been produced by metastasis. Lymph nodes attached to the liver and cecum had also metastatic lesions. Cancerous tissue was differentiated better in the metastatic lesions of the liver than in the original lesions of the cecum. The present case seems to be a very rare one of this kind in Japan.
