Piper has a Histiocytoma, anyone else experience this - YorkieTalk.com Forums

Mom 2 B · 07-24-2008, 07:41 AM

I took Piper to the vet last night to get a bump on her ear checked out (I thought if might be some kind of bug bite or cyst) and he told me it's a histiocytoma. He also said it was benign and may go away on it's own. I did a little research on the internet and from what I read, most go away on their own in a couple of months.

Has anyone else's furbaby had one of these? TIA.

I'm bumping this in hopes someone will reply. Surely Piper can't be the only one here that has had this? Thanks.

I've never had to deal with that and I don't remember any discussions on YT about it. Hmmm At least there should be a good outcome.

maybe you can do a search using the forum search on histiocytoma to see what it pulls up.
