title: [Chemotherapy of tumors in dogs].
abstract: The general principles of chemotherapy in oncology and the various types of antineoplastic drugs are discussed. Particular attention was paid to the results of chemotherapy in dogs and cats as reported in the literature. Chemotherapy is indicated in neoplastic disease characterised by early metastasis and/or local invasive growth. The results of chemotherapy in dogs and cats are so far moderate. Chemotherapy studies in the Netherlands are discussed: predictive in vitro, PEG-asparaginase studies in canine lymphosarcoma and regional perfusion in canine osteosarcoma.
