[Mesenchymal tumor in a female chamois. A case report].
A free-living 15-year old female chamois was shot because of illness and emaciation. The examination of the internal organs revealed numerous firm whitish tumour nodules in liver,spleen, mesenterium and peritoneum. Histologically the nature of tumour cells was identified as a metastasizing malignoma of mesenchymal origin. In addition to the blastoma, the parasite burden of the gastrointestinal tract and lungs did very likely contribute to the bad bodily condition of the chamois.
