Abstract

Registrou-se a ocorrência de um caso de osteopatia hipertrófica em canino, macho, mestiço, de quatro anos de idade. O trabalho descreve os aspectos clínico-patológicos e radiográficos de proliferação óssea e fibrosa periostal, com alargamento no perímetro da extremidade distal dos membros torácicos. No exame anatomopatológico, observou-se no coração exemplares de Dirofilaria immitis e, no esôfago, formação tumoral (fibroma), responsável pelo quadro de disfagia e dos episódios eméticos. Consideram-se as lesões de esôfago importantes na fisiopatologia do processo de osteopatia.
