Overview of Canine Hemangiosarcoma. Hemangiosarcoma is a malignant cancer of the cells that form blood vessels. Because these tumors start in blood vessels, they are frequently filled with blood. Consequently, when a blood-filled tumor ruptures, it can cause problems with internal or external bleeding.
Hemangiosarcoma in Dogs. The most common tumor of the spleen in dogs is hemangiosarcoma (HSA). Up to 50% of dogs with splenic HSA are in DIC (disseminated intravascular coagulation or inability to clot blood) at the time of presentation. Unfortunately, with surgery alone, the average survival times are only around 3 months.
