Cancer
•Three types in horses:– 1. Melanoma
–2. Squamos cell carcinoma
–3. Sarcoid
![Page 3: Integumentary System Jr / Sr Vet Science. Cancer Three types in horses: –1.Melanoma –2.Squamos cell carcinoma –3.Sarcoid](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e2f5503460f94b1ff90/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Cancer
• Not much internal organ cancer in horses
• Common: –Sinus tumors
–Intestinal
![Page 4: Integumentary System Jr / Sr Vet Science. Cancer Three types in horses: –1.Melanoma –2.Squamos cell carcinoma –3.Sarcoid](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e2f5503460f94b1ff90/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Cancer Signs
In horses:Nasal dischargeSwelling between eyes or right in front
of an eye. Be careful of diagn. Because could be
a tooth root prob. in an older horse.If antibiotics don’t work for two weeks,
usually a tumor
![Page 5: Integumentary System Jr / Sr Vet Science. Cancer Three types in horses: –1.Melanoma –2.Squamos cell carcinoma –3.Sarcoid](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e2f5503460f94b1ff90/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Cancer Treatment
• Cancer treatment:• Surgical incision through the sinus bone• Only a few vet schools do radiation, they are:
• North Carolina State• Ohio State• Auburn Univ.?• Cost usually @ $2,000-3,000 and 4-5,000
for radiation
![Page 6: Integumentary System Jr / Sr Vet Science. Cancer Three types in horses: –1.Melanoma –2.Squamos cell carcinoma –3.Sarcoid](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e2f5503460f94b1ff90/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Melanoma
• Can occur in dark skinned horses but mostly in gray.
• Over age 15 most common
• Young horses usually higher incidence of malignant
![Page 7: Integumentary System Jr / Sr Vet Science. Cancer Three types in horses: –1.Melanoma –2.Squamos cell carcinoma –3.Sarcoid](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e2f5503460f94b1ff90/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Melanoma• Usually see:
• Under tail, vulva, anus, sheath, or penis. • Lumps, or masses, may be under the skin.• Spreads, check for changes reg.• Earlier they are cut out the less chance of
them metastasizing.• Small surgeries often, better than large
growths.

Melanoma Treatment
• Cimetidine: used for human digestice tract upsets.
• Possible future vaccine

Squamos Cell Carcinoma
• Usually quite visible
• Often appears around genitalia, anus, eyes or eyelids.
• Most common in unpigmented skin.

Squamos Cell Carcinoma
• Can affect the third eyelid called the nictitating membrane.
• May mean eye removal
• Will save horse
![Page 15: Integumentary System Jr / Sr Vet Science. Cancer Three types in horses: –1.Melanoma –2.Squamos cell carcinoma –3.Sarcoid](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e2f5503460f94b1ff90/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Squamos Cell Carcinoma
• Signs:
–May start as small bump on inside of eyelid, raw surface, runny sore, may get worse quickly.
–This type of cancer spreads more rapidly than melanoma.

Squamos Cell Carcinoma
• Treatment:– Removal by surgery, burning,
cryosurgery (freezing).
– Can be treated with anti-inflammatory drugs:
–Pyroxicam: prevents recurrence.
–Can cause stomach ulcers, diarrhea from long term use.

Squamos Cell Carcinoma
• Treatment cont.:
• Chemotherapy: Injectable in places like eye where other methods could injure the eye.
• Most difficult: Penis

Sarcoids
• Don’t usually spread internally
• Don’t travel through the blood stream
• If not removed may disable the horse due to size.
![Page 21: Integumentary System Jr / Sr Vet Science. Cancer Three types in horses: –1.Melanoma –2.Squamos cell carcinoma –3.Sarcoid](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e2f5503460f94b1ff90/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

![Page 22: Integumentary System Jr / Sr Vet Science. Cancer Three types in horses: –1.Melanoma –2.Squamos cell carcinoma –3.Sarcoid](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e2f5503460f94b1ff90/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Sarcoids
• Two forms:
1. Flat hairless: This form may grow if
irritated
2. Large uncontrolled mass:
Grow in areas that are repeatedly
rubbed or injured.

Sarcoids
• Cause:
• Combination of a virus and genetic susceptibility.
• Different breeds react differently. QH more prone.

Skin
• Covers external surfaces of body
• Composed of epithelial tissue
• Dermatology is the study of Skin
![Page 39: Integumentary System Jr / Sr Vet Science. Cancer Three types in horses: –1.Melanoma –2.Squamos cell carcinoma –3.Sarcoid](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e2f5503460f94b1ff90/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Skin• Three Layers:
1. Epidermis: Outermost, no blood vessels
» Avascular layer» Varies from region to region: Thicker in
areas of greatest exposure ie: foot pads and teats.
» Made of squamous epithelium, flat, plate like arrangement thus called stratified squamous epithelium
![Page 40: Integumentary System Jr / Sr Vet Science. Cancer Three types in horses: –1.Melanoma –2.Squamos cell carcinoma –3.Sarcoid](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e2f5503460f94b1ff90/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Skin
2. Dermis:
» Directly deep to the epidermis
» Also called the corium
» Composed of blood and lymph vessels, nerve fibers and accessory organs of the skin
![Page 41: Integumentary System Jr / Sr Vet Science. Cancer Three types in horses: –1.Melanoma –2.Squamos cell carcinoma –3.Sarcoid](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e2f5503460f94b1ff90/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Skin
• Dermis contains connective tissue which is composed of the following 5 cells:
![Page 42: Integumentary System Jr / Sr Vet Science. Cancer Three types in horses: –1.Melanoma –2.Squamos cell carcinoma –3.Sarcoid](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e2f5503460f94b1ff90/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
• Fibroblasts: Produce fiber. • Collagen: Tough, flexible fibrous protein
found in skin, bone, cartilage ligaments and tendons.
• Histiocytes: Phagocytic cells that engulf foreign substances
• Mast cells: Respond to insult by producing and releasing histamine and heparin
• Perception: Ability to recognize sensory stimuli
![Page 43: Integumentary System Jr / Sr Vet Science. Cancer Three types in horses: –1.Melanoma –2.Squamos cell carcinoma –3.Sarcoid](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e2f5503460f94b1ff90/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Skin
3. Subcutaneous layer:
Also called hypodermis
Deep to or under the dermis
Composed of connective tissue
Contains a large amount of fat
Adipocytes: fat cells that produce
lipid
![Page 44: Integumentary System Jr / Sr Vet Science. Cancer Three types in horses: –1.Melanoma –2.Squamos cell carcinoma –3.Sarcoid](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e2f5503460f94b1ff90/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Skin Glands:
Exocrine Glands:
• 1. Sebaceous
• 2. Sweat
![Page 45: Integumentary System Jr / Sr Vet Science. Cancer Three types in horses: –1.Melanoma –2.Squamos cell carcinoma –3.Sarcoid](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e2f5503460f94b1ff90/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Skin• Sebaceous:
• Lubricates Skin• Bacterial growth due to slight acidity.• Secrete oily substance called sebum.• Found in anal sacs, glands that produce musk and circumoral and supracaudal, which cats use to mark their territory when they groom and rub their tail respectively.
![Page 46: Integumentary System Jr / Sr Vet Science. Cancer Three types in horses: –1.Melanoma –2.Squamos cell carcinoma –3.Sarcoid](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e2f5503460f94b1ff90/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Skin
•Sweat Glands:
• Regulate body temp
• Excrete wastes
![Page 49: Integumentary System Jr / Sr Vet Science. Cancer Three types in horses: –1.Melanoma –2.Squamos cell carcinoma –3.Sarcoid](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062321/56649e2f5503460f94b1ff90/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)

Do Dogs Sweat?• Dogs have a dermal skin layer: Two types of
glands that produce fluids. • The apocrine glands, which produce sweat in
humans, have two other functions in dogs —• Seal the outer layer of the epidermis • Secrete pheromones that give dogs a distinctive
body odor.• The eccrine glands in the pads of the paws do
produce a watery secretion similar to human perspiration. This secretion leaves damp pawprints behind nervous or stressed canines and may also improve traction for a quick getaway.
