A case of feline large granular lymphocyte lymphoma with complete remission and long survival by surgical resection and adjuvant nimustine administration

Abstract A 7‐year‐old spayed female Scottish Fold cat presented with a 4‐week history of anorexia, weight loss and vomiting. Abdominal ultrasonography revealed a jejunal mass and a slightly enlarged jejunal lymph node. A fine‐needle aspiration of the mass revealed many round cells with multiple smal...
