Abstract

Tumors of the skin and subcutaneous tissues are most common in Veterinary practice and account for  approximately one-third of all the tumors in dogs (Chikweto  et al., 2011). Sebaceous hyperplasia is a most common  tumor of the sebaceous gland that occurs in the old age,  anywhere on the body as wart-like or cauliflower-like and  can become ulcerated because of trauma, while sebaceous  epithelioma occurs primarily on the head as a solitary lesion  but generalized cases have been reported. The treatment  of choice is surgical excision (Max’s House, 2005). This paper  presents case studies of sebaceous gland tumors in two dogs.
