The authors describe a case of a 5-years old mongrel dog showing abdominal distension, weakness, and decreased appetite. An exploratory celiotomy showed a massive non-encapsulated nodular tumour, adhered on the mesentery, measuring 30cm in diameter. Histopatology identified the tumour as a myxosarcoma. There is not previous record of mesenteric myxosarcoma. %K C o %K mixossarcoma %K mesent¨¦rio %U http://www.scielo.br/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S0102-09351999000600005
