Abstract

This report describes a case of a typical serous borderline tumor of the ovary in a 6-year-old Pointer dog. Although ovarian tumors are rare in dogs, epithelial tumors are the most frequently diagnosed ovarian tumors. A borderline tumor, which is an epithelial tumor of the ovary, was initially identified in a badger. This case is the first published case of a typical serous borderline tumor of the ovary in a dog.
