Full definition
Apocrine (sebaceous) gland tumors (also
called perianal adenomas) are common in male dogs because they are stimulated, in part, by testosterone.
Among the common canine and feline skin tumors are mast cell tumors,
perianal adenomas, fibrosarcomas, melanomas, histiocytomas, squamous cell carcinomas, hemangiopericytomas, and basal cell tumors.
These include soft tissue surgeries such as spays and neuters, gastrointestinal, spleen, bladder, mass removals, cystotomies,
perianal adenomas, tumor resections and more.
They may develop a number of medical conditions including testicular cancer and
perianal adenomas.
Perianal Gland Tumours Perianal gland tumours, or
perianal adenomas, are most common in un-neutered male dogs.
