Resumo: Cancer is the main cause of death among pet animals. FeLV, the feline leukemia virus, increases the odds of domestic felines’ developing lymphoma or leukemia 62 fold. The cardiac lymphoma is a rare neoplasia and little is known about it in Veterinary Medicine. Therefore, it has been sought to report a case of cardiac lymphoma in a two-year-old, FeLV-positive feline patient, who presented dyspnea, lack of appetite, progressive loss of weight, and apathy. By means of supplementary examination, the presence of a mass attached to the heat would be verified, and lymphoma was diagnosed upon histopathological examination. It is thus concluded that this neoplasia was associated to the feline leukemia virus and that, in spite of the supplementary examinations’ having been utterly important for a correct diagnosis, the lack of an early definition aggravated the clinical picture of the patient and hindered the implementation of specific treatment.

O FeLV, vírus da leucemia felina, aumenta em 62 vezes a chance de felinos domésticos infectados desenvolverem linfoma ou leucemia. O linfoma cardíaco é uma neoplasia rara, e na Medicina Veterinária pouco se sabe sobre ele. Portanto, objetivou-se relatar um caso de linfoma cardíaco em um paciente felino de dois anos de idade e soropositivo para FeLV, que apresentava dispneia, inapetência, emagrecimento progressivo e apatia. Através dos exames complementares foi verificada a presença de uma massa aderida ao coração, diagnosticando-se linfoma a partir do histopatológico. Conclui-se então, que esta neoplasia foi associada ao vírus da leucemia felina e que, apesar dos exames complementares terem sido extremamente importantes para um correto diagnóstico, a sua não definição precoce agravou o quadro clínico do paciente e dificultou a implantação de um tratamento específico.Sociedade de Medicina Veterinária do Estado do Rio de Janeiro.2019-09-12info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rbmv.org/BJVM/article/view/100010.29374/2527-2179.bjvm100019Brazilian Journal of Veterinary Medicine; Vol. 41 No. 1 (2019); e100019Revista Brasileira de Medicina Veterinária; v. 41 n. 1 (2019); e1000192527-21790100-2430reponame:Brazilian Journal of Veterinary Medicineinstname:Sociedade de Medicina Veterinária do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (SOMVERJ)instacron:SBMVenghttps://rbmv.org/BJVM/article/view/1000/957Copyright (c) 2019 Henrique Inhauser Riceti Magalhães, Karen Gonçalves Mendonça, Ygor Henrique de Paula, Fabiano Braz Romão, Jeferson Borges Barcelos, Wanessa Ribeiro Gontijo Dobritz, Vera Lucia Pichioni, Thaisa Reis dos Santosinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMagalhães, Henrique Inhauser RicetiMendonça, Karen Gonçalvesde Paula, Ygor HenriqueRomão, Fabiano BrazBarcelos, Jeferson BorgesDobritz, Wanessa Ribeiro GontijoPichioni, Vera Luciados Santos, Thaisa Reis2020-12-23T17:24:50Zoai:ojs.rbmv.org:article/1000Revistahttps://rbmv.org/BJVMONGhttps://rbmv.org/BJVM/oaicontato.rbmv@gmail.com2527-21790100-2430opendoar:2020-12-23T17:24:50Brazilian Journal of Veterinary Medicine - Sociedade de Medicina Veterinária do Estado do Rio de Janeiro (SOMVERJ)false
