This case report describes the clinical presentation and treatment of a vaginal leiomyosarcoma in a 10-year-old mixed-breed hound dog. On clinical examination the vaginal originated, and an irregular, solid mass was detected. Transabdominal ultrasonography revealed no obvious uterine or ovarian mass or fluid. Vaginal mass resection and ovariohysterectomy were planned to cure the animal. The mass was surgically removed and the vaginal mucosa was sutured. Ovariohysterectomy was performed because of the risk of uterine or ovarian metastasis of the vaginal mass. The dog was treated with amoxicillin/clavulanic acid for five days. On histopathologic examination, the mass was diagnosed as a leiomyosarcoma. In conclusion, although vaginal masses are mainly benign, malignant tumors such as leiomyosarcomas can occur in dogs. Differential diagnoses for vaginal neoplasia include vaginal fold prolapse and vaginal polyps. Treatment of leiomyosarcomas should be planned quickly to avoid metastasis to other organs.
