Abstract (2. Language): 
A native breed, 16 years old mare was presented to our clinics with the complaint of an idiopathic and non-healing wound on the genital region. General condition of the mare was normal, but an extensive open wound on the vulva, which was extending to ventral part of the anus, characterized by fibrotic proliferation was observed in the examination of the genital region. The biopsy was taken and the samples were sent to pathology laboratory. As a result of histopathological examination, squamous cell carcinoma was diagnosed. The suggested chemotherapy options for treatment were refused by the patient owner because of the age of the horse and the cost of treatment. With this case presentation, reporting of the clinical and histopathological result of vulvar squamous cell carcinoma and possible treatment options for this rare case in a mare was aimed.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Yerli ırk, 16 yaşlı bir kısrak, genital bölgede sebebi bilinmeyen ve iyileşmeyen yara şikayeti ile kliniğimi-ze getirildi. Kısrağın genel durumu iyiydi ancak genital bölgenin muayenesinde vulvada anüsün alt yarımını kapsayan, fibrotik üremeyle karakterize, yaygın açık bir yara belirlendi. Biyopsi alınarak numuneler patoloji laboratuarına gönderildi. Histopatolojik inceleme sonucu alınan numunelerden yassı hücreli karsinom tanısı konuldu. Tedavi için önerilen kemoterapi seçenekleri, kısrağın yaşı ve sağaltımın maliyeti dolayısıyla hasta sahibi tarafından kabul edilmedi. Sunulan bu olgu ile bir kısrakta vulvar yassı hücreli karsinomun klinik ve his-topatolojik bulgularının rapor edilmesi ve kliniğimizde çok sık karşılaşılmayan bu neoplazi için olası sağaltım seçeneklerinin tartışılması amaçlanmıştır.
