A twelve-year-old female Cocker Spaniel was presented for a clinical examination at a private veterinary clinic with an abnormal mass protruding from the external genitalia. According to the medical history, the pathologically altered tissue had shown accelerated growth, and in the last few days, the animal had begun to exhibit difficulty urinating. During vaginal examination, a well-defined, round mass with a firm-elastic consistency was found. Preoperative paraclinical examinations, including hematological and biochemical blood parameters, radiography, and ultrasonography, were performed. Surgical removal of the mass, along with ovariohysterectomy, was performed. The animal had a trouble-free recovery in the postoperative period. At a follow-up examination conducted a few months later, no recurrences of the tumor or metastases were found. Based on histopathological and immunohistochemical examination, a diagnosis of vaginal fibroma was confirmed.
