PRIMARY MENINGEAL T-CELL LYMPHOMA IN A HARBOR SEAL (PHOCA VITULINA)
A 15-year-old female harbor seal (Phoca vitulina) was referred to the Nantes Veterinary School, Nantes, France, with a clinical history of anorexia, seizures, and left hemiplegia. Cerebrospinal fluid analysis revealed large numbers of neoplastic lymphoid cells. After injection of a contrast agent in...
