Abstract

A North Island brown kiwi (Apteryx mantelli) with lameness and weight loss had a telangiectatic osteosarcoma. The left proximal tibiotarsus had bony lysis with multiple blood-filled spaces separated by thick fibrous septa and neoplastic mesenchymal cells producing osteoid (5-bromo-4-chloro-3′-indolyl phosphate/nitro blue tetrazolium positive on cytology). No metastases were noted on necropsy.
