A malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) of the giant cell type was diagnosed in a 10-year-old female Domestic Short-Hair cat. The tumour was surgically removed but recurred after two months and the animal was destroyed. The most prominent histological feature was the presence of numerous multinucleated giant cells scattered among malignant-looking mononuclear tumour cells. In addition, 16 cases of MFH of the giant cell type reported in cats in the English language literature are reviewed. The mean age was 6.5 years. The most often affected breed was the Domestic Short-Hair and no sex preference was found. Ten out of 16 cases were located in the legs; 10 extraskeletal, three were skeletal and in three cases the origin of the tumour was not specified. Proved metastasis occurred in only one case.
一只10岁的雌性家养短毛猫被诊断患有巨细胞型恶性纤维组织细胞瘤(MFH)。肿瘤通过手术切除,但两个月后复发,该动物被安乐死。最显著的组织学特征是在看似恶性的单核肿瘤细胞中散在分布着大量多核巨细胞。此外,还对英文文献中报道的16例猫巨细胞型MFH病例进行了综述。平均年龄为6.5岁。最常受影响的品种是家养短毛猫,未发现性别偏好。16例中有10例位于腿部;10例为骨外肿瘤,3例为骨内肿瘤,3例肿瘤起源未明确说明。仅1例发生了证实的转移。
