Popis: A case of hemangioma in wild boar was described. The tumor was histopathologically and immunohistochemically characterized. Immunohistochemical detection’s of von Willebrand’s factor (vWF), CD31, CD34, Ulex Europaeus agglutinin 1 (UEA), vimentin and keratin from formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue sections were performed. Gross and histological appearance of the tumor closely resembled to those previously described in domestic pig. Immunohistochemically, anti CD-34 and vimentin were noted to be most sensitive markers in both cavernous and capillary areas of tumor, whereas UEA was observed only focally. In this case the keratin staining was negative. It could be concluded that the results of the immunohistochemical staining were somewhat different in this case compared to the cases of the same tumor previously described in literature. Based on that, it could be hypothesized that there was more then one cellular origin of the hemangioma in the wild boar.
