Lymphangiomyomatosis in the Atlantic bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus)

AJ Rawson, GW Patton, and JS Brooks


ABSTRACT

The first case of lymphangiomyomatosis in a marine mammal is reported from a stranded male Atlantic bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus). This progressive proliferative disease involved the lungs and the mediastinal and probably mesenteric lymph nodes. An extraordinarily low level of testosterone may have been pathologically significant since all reported cases of this disease in humans occur in females.
