J Comp Pathol. 2002 Nov;127(4):301-3. doi: 10.1053/jcpa.2002.0585.

Abstract

A rare sebaceous gland carcinoma of the external auditory canal in a rabbit is described. The tumour was characterized histologically by foci and cords of markedly pleomorphic cells with abundant cytoplasm and variable numbers of vacuoles. A single pulmonary mass had similar histological characteristics. This is the first such tumour reported in a rabbit.
