Abstract
Leiomyosarcoma of somatic soft tissues, like other soft tissue sarcomas, often present as an enlarging, painless mass. Leiomyosarcoma is an aggressive soft tissue sarcoma derived from smooth muscle cells typically of uterine, gastrointestinal or soft tissue origin. An 11yrs old Pomeranian dog with a vaginal mass was excised under Xylazine and Ketamine Anaesthesia and it was diagnosed as Leomyosarcoma based on histopathology.
