Abstract

A study on treatment of mammary tumour in bitches was conducted by comparing two regimens of chemotherapy viz. Oncotron (Group-I, n=6) and a combination of Oncotron and Mammofen (Group-II, n=6). Comparative analysis of the two groups revealed significant variations in hematobiochemical values. Regression percentage in Group I was 66.20 percent and in Group II was 69.56 percent with recurrence observed in one case in each group. The G-banded karyotype of lymphocyte in metaphase obtained showed normalcy with respect to number, length and breadth of the chromosomes with normal appearance of bands.
