Abstract:
A 7-year-old Eld's deer (Cervus eldii) developed a swelling rostromedial to the left eye in association with signs of weakness, blindness, and discomfort. By means of radiography and biopsy, the swelling was found to be a carcinoma of lining epithelium of the caudal nasal cavity and left frontal sinus. Within 2 weeks of initial observation, signs of neurologic involvement developed and the deer was euthanatized. Necropsy revealed metastasis to lungs, liver, kidneys, and abdominal lymph nodes.
