Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to establish criteria that could guide the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of canine mammary neoplasias. It was elaborated during the Mammary Pathology Meeting: Diagnosis, prognosis and Treatment of the Canine Mammary Neoplasia, held on November 6th and 7th, 2010 in Belo Horizonte – MG, Brazil. Academics from several regions of Brazil were present and contributed to this work. After three years, a new discussion was found necessary in order to address important questions: 1 - Have Brazilian DVMs applied the consensus? 2 - What were the main difficulties in applying the consensus? 3 - What were the obtained results? 4 - What were the main differences among the various oncology services/groups? 5 - How could the criteria be improved and uniformed? A spreadsheet that allowed data
collection and an abstract was submitted by each oncology service/group from various parts of the country
. Based on the abstracts we identified the main differences in diagnosis and therapeutic conducts among the groups. These differences have guided the discussions of the II Mammary Pathology Meeting and the publication of a second consensus that has been revised and updated. The II Mammary Pathology Meeting: Diagnosis, Prognosi s and Treatment of the Canine mamary Neoplasia, was held on December 9th, 10th and 11th , 2013 in Belo Horizonte – MG, sponsored by the Laboratory of Comparative Pathology of the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG), with the support of the Brazilian Association of Veterinary Pathology (ABPV) and Brazilian Association of Veterinary Oncology (ABROVET). Academics from several regions of Brazil were present and contributed to this work.
