Abstrakt:	A 13-year-old, intact male mixed-breed dog was referred to our clinic for lethargy and asthenia following an episode of gastroenteritis. As an incidental finding during abdominal ultrasound, a mass on the right spermatic cord was seen. Cytology of the mass revealed a monomorphic population of large, round cells with a lymphoid appearance. A bilateral orchiectomy was conducted, and histopathology revealed the presence of a B-cell lymphoma in the right spermatic cord. Based on clinical staging, which showed no involvement of other sites, no additional treatment was administered. Recheck evaluations were scheduled for every 3 mo thereafter. Five months after surgery, the dog developed left central vestibular syndrome with a paradoxical right-sided head tilt. An MRI of the brain showed multifocal lesions and, due to a rapidly worsening clinical condition, the dog was humanely euthanized. The histopathology of the brain lesions was consistent with B-cell lymphoma. Key clinical message: This is the first report of a primary spermatic cord lymphoma relapsing to the brain in a dog. Although rare, spermatic cord tumors should be included among the differential diagnoses for masses arising from the spermatic cord. If lymphoma is diagnosed, location to other sites, especially to the central nervous system, should be considered.
