– 15 yr old DSH presented for weight loss despite a very good appetite

– bloodwork including T4 unremarkable; rDVM could palpate a tubular mass in the caudal abdomen

– US showed EHBDO, thickended and dilated D-pap and severely enlarged inhomogeneous pancreas

– there was an IBD/lymphoma pattern in the SI with no obstruction; small non-obstructive renoliths

– a large, irregualar mass filld much of the caudal abdomen all the way to the UB; well vascularized on colour Doppler
