I don't know about a hemangiosarcoma cancer study but I do have a friend who
just lost her 6 year old GSD to a tumour on the spleen that bled out. Her
dog survived about 3 weeks after diagnosis.

Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Hemangiosarcoma cancer study?
Hi.
Someone had written about a cancer study in a past review but I have not
yet heardback on where the study is so I was hoping someone could help me.
Talking with Ava's owner yesterday, her vet feels she "may" have had
hemangiosarcoma, a very rare tumor which attacks the spleen and heart. Her
vet has only seen/heard of 2 cases in the past 6 years prior to this past
weekend. It is rarely caught beforehand, and aggressively attacks the body
over a very short time span, most owners do not know until their dog is
dying that it was even there. The reason her vet thinks this is she had
another German Shepehrd come in this past weekend, 6 yrs. old. When they
took the xray (10 min after dog had symptoms, the dog was being boarded
there) theysaw the spleen covered in blood and blood traveling up toward the
heart. Later when the dog was xrayed again, the heart was surrounded by
blood, just as Ava's heart was when she was xrayed. For Ava though it took
an hour to get to the vet
due to it being late at night which is why they did not see the blood
traveling as they did in the other dog. Both with Ava and this other
Shepehrd,when they were both put down blood poured out of their mouths
(which I believe is unusual..never had to put a dog down so I do not
personally know) is why her vet thinks Ava "may" have had this type of
cancer. If there is a cancer research going on and someone has information
or is able to tell me which review the info was in, I would appreciate it.
Thank You.
