AB  - Canine Eosinophilic Granuloma (CEG) is a
rare skin disease of unknown origin. The lesions comprise
nodules or plaques, mostly localized in the oral cavity. To
describe the clinical presentation, histological features,
treatment and outcome of concurrent eosinophilic
granulomatous dermatitis and cutaneous mucinosis in a
Shar-Pei. A seven-year-old sharpie dog with a large
nodule on the frontal region of head was referred to
private veterinary hospital. Well circumscribed, soft
cutaneous nodule observed in dermatological
examination. Histopathological examination revealed
microgranuloma structures with degenerated collagen
fibers, surrounded by large amounts of eosinophils and
other mononuclear inflammatory cells as well as deposit
of mucin-like substance which stained with Alcian blue.
The follow-up of the case 6 months later showed no
evidence of tumor recurrence.
