Neoplasia in fishes
Abstract
Similar to higher vertebrates, neoplasia is not an uncommon disease in fishes, which are the largest group of vertebrates. However,neoplasia in fishes is generally a benign condition with relatively few exceptions of malignant disease. The objective of this discussion is to provide an overview of neoplasia and the various neoplastic disease conditions in fishes according to organ system,including the few neoplasms of species that are familiar to the aquatic animal or exotic animal practitioner. The discussion also considers the various nonneoplastic lesions in fishes that may be confused with neoplasms, and treatment of neoplastic disease in fishes that is generally restricted to surgical intervention.
