From a veterinary perspective, we speak of "tumorous diseases in guinea pigs" when tissue proliferates uncontrollably within the body. This can be benign or malignant (cancer). Guinea pigs (Cavia porcellus) exhibit a spectrum of tumor types: frequently skin and subcutaneous tumors (e.g., lipomas, trichofolliculomas), relatively frequently changes in the mammary gland/mammary gland (mammary tumors), as well as diseases of the reproductive tract and lymphatic neoplasms (lymphomas). Clinically, such processes are noticeable through palpable lumps, altered skin surfaces, weight loss, decreased performance, decreased appetite, enlarged lymph nodes, respiratory problems, or nonspecific "age-related complaints." However, tumorous diseases in guinea pigs are particularly easily overlooked because the animals instinctively compensate for impairments for a long time.

The uvea represents the vascular membrane of the eye and is made up of three main components: the iris (rainbow skin), the ciliary body and the choroid. The primary task of these structures is to ensure the blood vessel supply inside the eye. In medicine, the term “itis” refers to inflammation. Therefore, uveitis refers to the inflammation of these internal eye structures.
