Abstract: | A neonatal alpaca cria found to have minimal clinical abnormalities was diagnosed postmortem with an epithelial-type hepatoblastoma with combined embryonal and fetal patterns, based on previously reported morphological features. Camelid neoplasia and domestic animal hepatoblastomas are very rare, with only a single case of congenital hepatoblastoma in a domestic animal previously reported. |
