Lymphoma is caused by malignant clonal expansion of lymphoid cells and most commonly arises from lymphoid tissues including the [[Bone Marrow|bone marrow]], [[Thymus|thymus]], [[Lymph Nodes - Anatomy & Physiology|lymph nodes]] and [[Spleen - Anatomy & Physiology|spleen]]. Lymphoma is documented to be the most common haematopoietic [[Neoplasia - Pathology|neoplasm]] in dogs.

In the dog, multicentric lymphoma is most common representing 80% of cases. [[Alimentary - Anatomy & Physiology|Alimentary]], cutaneous, [[Mediastinum - Anatomy & Physiology|mediastinal]] and extranodal sites are less common. Additionally the majority of lymphoma cases in dogs are of the B-cell immunophenotype.

In cats following the inroduction of widespread [[Feline Leukaemia Virus|FeLV]] testing and [[vaccines|vaccination]] the most common type of lymphoma affecting cats is alimentary when previously it had been mediastinal and multicentric forms.
