Malignant histiocytosis was diagnosed in 10 male and 1 female Bernese Mountain Dogs. Nine of these dogs were closely related. The disease was characterized by a rapidly progressive and inevitably fatal course. Clinical signs varied, but lethargy, anorexia, weight loss, and respiratory and CNS abnormalities predominated. The lungs were the primary site of tumor involvement in 10 dogs. The eleventh dog had lymphadenopathy and severe anemia. Metastatic lesions were detected in all dogs. Anaplastic pulmonary carcinoma was diagnosed originally in 6 of the 11 cases, but this diagnosis was changed to malignant histiocytosis after electron microscopic examination of tissues and immunohistochemical identification of histiocytic markers in the tumor cells.

The clinical and pathologic features of 4 dogs with malignant histiocytosis were evaluated. The most common clinical signs were weight loss, lethargy, lymphadenopathy, hepatosplenomegaly, and anemia. Neoplastic histiocytic infiltrates most commonly were found in the spleen, bone marrow, liver, or lymph nodes. Malignant histiocytosis was considered as a differential diagnosis for anemic dogs with lymphadenopathy and/or hepatosplenomegaly.

A 64-year-old man was admitted with complaints of lethargy, malaise, weight loss and transient left-hemiplegia and aphasia. Initial physical and laboratory findings showed splenomegaly and pericardial effusion. During his hospital stay, his mental status deteriorated progressively. The characteristic pathology of malignant reticulosis was noted at autopsy. Microscopic examination of the brain demonstrated accumulations of malignant histiocytic cells confined within small vessels and subsequent multiple hemorrhages and necroses in the gray matter. Malignant reticulosis with antemortem manifestations of pericardial effusion and central nervous system involvement is rare.
