Cytologic examination of fine-needle aspirates obtained from affected organs (a liver mass [dog 1] and enlarged submandibular lymph node [dog 2]) revealed 2 main nucleated cell types: atypical lymphoid cells and lesser numbers of Mott cells. With the use of serum immunofixation electrophoresis and serum immunoglobulin quantification, a monoclonal immunoglobulin protein was identified in both dogs and a final diagnosis of secretory B-cell lymphoma with Mott cell differentiation (MCL) was made.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p><jats:bold>Treatment and Outcome<\/jats:bold>\u2014Both dogs received chemotherapy for their disease. The first dog was euthanized 8.5 months after diagnosis because of acute respiratory distress of unknown etiology, and the second was euthanized 7 days after diagnosis for worsening clinical disease and quality of life.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p><jats:bold>Clinical Relevance<\/jats:bold>\u2014To our knowledge, this report is the first of a secretory form of MCL in dogs. Findings indicate that in dogs with suspect MCL, even in patients that lack characteristic hyperproteinemia or hyperglobulinemia, serum protein content should be fully evaluated for the presence of a monoclonal immunoglobulin protein. Such an evaluation that uses immunofixation electrophoresis and immunoglobulin quantification will aid in the diagnosis of MCL in dogs.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.2460\/javma.239.11.1477","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,11,17]],"date-time":"2011-11-17T08:45:57Z","timestamp":1321519557000},"page":"1477-1482","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Monoclonal immunoglobulin protein production in two dogs with secretory B-cell lymphoma with Mott cell differentiation"],"prefix":"10.2460","volume":"239","author":[{"given":"Davis M.","family":"Seelig","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"James A.","family":"Perry","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Karen","family":"Zaks","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Anne C.","family":"Avery","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Paul R.","family":"Avery","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1272","reference":[{"key":"ref1","series-title":"Vet Clin Pathol","first-page":"113","article-title":"B-cell lymphoma with Mott cell differentiation in two young adult dogs","volume":"38","author":"Stacy","year":"2009"},{"key":"ref2","series-title":"Vet Clin Pathol","first-page":"409","article-title":"B-cell intestinal lymphoma with Mott cell differentiation in a 1-year-old miniature Dachshund","volume":"37","author":"Kodama","year":"2008"},{"key":"ref3","series-title":"J Vet Diagn Invest","first-page":"715","article-title":"Gastric B-cell lymphoma with Mott cell differentiation in a dog","volume":"21","author":"De Zan","year":"2009"},{"key":"ref4","series-title":"Withrow and MacEwen's small animal clinical oncology","first-page":"699","article-title":"Hematopoietic tumors","author":"Vail","year":"2007"},{"key":"ref5","series-title":"J Small Anim Pract","first-page":"377","article-title":"Prognostic variables in canine multicentric lymphosarcoma","volume":"42","author":"Dobson","year":"2001"},{"key":"ref6","series-title":"Vet Pathol","first-page":"32","article-title":"Diagnosis of canine lymphoid neoplasia using clonal rearrangements of antigen receptor genes","volume":"40","author":"Burnett","year":"2003"},{"key":"ref7","series-title":"Vet Clin Pathol","first-page":"447","article-title":"Monoclonal gammopathy without hyperglobulinemia in 2 dogs with IgA secretory neoplasms","volume":"39","author":"Seelig","year":"2010"},{"key":"ref8","series-title":"J Am Anim Hosp Assoc","first-page":"135","article-title":"Monoclonal gammopathies in the dog: a retrospective study of 18 cases (1986\u20131999) and literature review","volume":"38","author":"Giraudel","year":"2002"},{"key":"ref9","series-title":"J Vet Intern Med","first-page":"357","article-title":"Monoclonal gammopathy in a dog with chronic pyoderma","volume":"9","author":"Burkhard","year":"1995"},{"key":"ref10","series-title":"J Am Vet Med Assoc","first-page":"1233","article-title":"Monoclonal gammopathy in a dog with plasmacytic gastroenterocolitis","volume":"201","author":"Diehl","year":"1992"},{"key":"ref11","series-title":"West Indian Med J","first-page":"170","article-title":"Biochemical abnormalities in multiple myeloma","volume":"40","author":"Choo-Kang","year":"1991"},{"key":"ref12","series-title":"Clin Biochem","first-page":"244","article-title":"Long-term study of gammopathies.
