Özet

The pathomorphological and immunohistochemical findings of a malignant plasma cell tumour in the rectum of a 12-years old, male Terrier dog are described. Microscopically, neoplastic plasma cells and plasmablasts were detected with hematoxylin-eosin and methyl green pyronin staining methods for nuclear activity. Immunohistochemically, mild positiveness in nuclei was obtained with p53 and p63 markers. Plasma cell tumour was considered to be highly malignant according to obtained results from different pathological methods.
