An intracranial lipomatous mass in a Hungarian Vizsla dog (<i>Canis</i><i>familiaris</i>)

Abstract A 4‐year‐old, male, neutered Hungarian Vizsla dog was referred for tertiary evaluation and management of an intracranial mass. The dog had been managed medically for generalised tonic‐clonic epileptic seizures resulting from presumed structural epilepsy, as a mass was observed on magnetic resonance imaging in the area of the quadrigeminal cistern. Posterior magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography were performed for radiation therapy planning. On both modalities, the mass had imaging characteristics consistent with fat, and a presumptive diagnosis of an intracranial lipoma was made. The dog underwent a follow‐up computed tomography of the head 4 months after initial presentation, which revealed that the mass remained of comparable size. At that time, the seizures were still under control and occurred with less frequency while taking the prescribed medication at the same dosage.
