Cytogenetic and medico-ecological assessment of indicators of the skin of domestic animals of the canidae and felidae families of central Belarus

Abstract

The study of the genesis of domestic animals in zoogeographic, phylogenetic and cytogenetic aspects allowed us to identify patterns of occurrence and development of various diseases and to predict their dynamics in connection with changes in the complex conditions of their habitat. It was found that among the examined group of dogs in 80,3% of cases there were benign neoplasms; in 19,7% of cases the possibility of the occurrence and development of malignant neoplasms was diagnosed. Malignant neoplasms of the skin among the examined cats were detected more often and made up 63,0% of cases (benign - 37,0%).
