BG adenoma is a rare, typically benign tumor in humans with non-specific clinical manifestations and no clear etiopathogenesis. This lesion, and the related condition BG hyperplasia, has been documented rarely in animals (one dog, two horses, and in mice and rats). This is the first description of the lesion in the cat. The comparative pathology, differential diagnoses and possible significance of these lesions are discussed.
