Abstract
A simple, papillary cystic adenocarcinoma of the mammary gland with metastases to the internal iliac and mesenteric lymph nodes, liver and spleen was observed in a 12-13 yr old female black-footed ferret (M. nigripes). Histologically, the tumor was aggressive and lymphatic invasion was found. Attempts at virus isolation were negative. Other findings were bilateral infarcts in the kidneys, apparently resulting in acute renal shutdown and death, multiple thrombi in the right atrium aortic arteriosclerosis and focal interstitial pneumonia.
