Abstract
A 10-year-old, spayed female, obese golden retriever, presented for immune-mediated thrombocytopenia, was successfully managed with the administration of vincristine and prednisone. However, 6 mo after discontinuing corticosteroid therapy because of suspected iatrogenic hyperglucocorticoidism, the patient was presented with multiple, firm, bilaterally symmetric, dermal masses composed histologically of differentiated cortical bone.
