A malignant histiocytoma of the carpus and distal portion of the right antebrachium of a cat was treated by forelimb amputation. The tumor remained in remission 35 months after surgery. The response to treatment in this cat and similar findings reported by others suggest that the biological behavior of malignant fibrous histiocytoma is such that prolonged remission, if not cure of the disease, can be achieved with early radical excision of the tumor.
一只猫右前臂腕部和远端的恶性组织细胞瘤通过前肢截肢术进行了治疗。术后35个月肿瘤仍处于缓解期。这只猫的治疗反应以及其他人报告的类似发现表明，恶性纤维组织细胞瘤的生物学行为是，如果对该疾病无法治愈，那么通过早期根治性切除肿瘤可实现长期缓解。
