Canine lymphoma is the most commonly reported neoplastic haematological disorder. During the preliminary diagnosis of this disease it is important to plan a standard diagnostic approach in order to appropriately identify the disease, to formulate a correct prognostic judgement, and to undertake an adequate therapeutic protocol. In particular, the use of corticosteroids as single agents for the treatment of lymphoma is unadvised, as a negative association with the remission time following multidrug therapy has been demonstrated (Price et al., 1991). Moreover, an involvement of corticosteroids in the resistance to chemotherapeutic agents has been hypothesized.
