Abstrakt: The five-level WHO staging system is currently the standard for canine lymphomas. In humans, staging for Non-Hodgkin lymphomas has recently evolved to the Lugano classification. In this four-level classification, the splenic infiltration does not induce stage migration from stage III, while hepatic involvement is considered as a more advanced stage together with bone marrow or non-lymphoid organs infiltration. Objective The objective of this pilot study is to evaluate the accuracy of the Lugano staging system, compared to the WHO, in predicting first remission duration (FRD) in dogs.
