Abstract

While the therapeutic approach to cancer is complicated, it becomes a challenge for clinicians.

We did not obviate the concomitant use of conventional treatments. Animals belonging to the following breeds: crossbred Mastiff. Mastiff. Golden Retriever and crossbred German Shepherd, were diagnosed with different types of tumours (Lymphosarcoma, Chondrosarcoma, Adenocarcinoma and Osteosarcoma, respectively). Ozone therapy was applied in treatment cycles rectally, by autohaemotherapy and by local infiltration.
