Abstract
A 10-year-old greyhound dog was presented because of an incidental finding of a tonsillar mass. Excisional surgical biopsy was performed and the dog was diagnosed with an incompletely resected plasma cell tumor. Adjuvant therapy was declined. One year later there was no local recurrence or distant metastasis of the mass or clinical signs associated with the tonsillar plasmacytoma.
