Calcium chloride for treatment of subcutaneous lipomas in dogs.
Ten dogs were selected for treatment of SC lipomas (n = 18) with intratumor injection of 10% calcium chloride. At 6-month follow-up, 4 tumors had regressed completely and 14 were less than 50% of their original size. Skin necrosis overlying treated tumors developed in 3 dogs.
