Liposarcomas are rare neoplasms in domestic animals, but have been reported to occur in many species. In humans, liposarcoma is one of the most common malignant mesenchymal tumors. Classification of liposarcomas in humans has been well established and categorization by type can be of prognostic value; no such unique classification scheme has been established for liposarcomas in animals. Liposarcoma of the head and neck in humans are uncommon, and are rarely reported in the nasal cavity, sinuses, and nasopharynx. To our knowledge, a liposarcoma has never been reported in the nasal cavity of a domestic animal. In this report we describe a liposarcoma that developed in the nasal cavity of a cow, with local invasion into the oral cavity.
脂肪肉瘤在家畜中是罕见的肿瘤,但已有报道称其在许多物种中发生。在人类中,脂肪肉瘤是最常见的恶性间叶组织肿瘤之一。人类脂肪肉瘤的分类已经很完善,按类型分类具有预后价值;而动物脂肪肉瘤尚未建立这样独特的分类方案。人类头颈部脂肪肉瘤并不常见,在鼻腔、鼻窦和鼻咽部很少有报道。据我们所知,家畜鼻腔中从未报道过脂肪肉瘤。在本报告中,我们描述了一例发生在奶牛鼻腔的脂肪肉瘤,并局部侵犯至口腔。
