Clinical management of tumours in geriatric dogs and cats: systemic effects of tumours and paraneoplastic syndromes.
There are many clinical presentations of neoplastic disease in the dog and cat. Some relate to the presence of a solid mass but many relate to the systemic effect that the tumour has on the animal. This paper covers the broad categories of the systemic metabolic and haematological effects that are associated with tumours in the dog and cat.
