Forty-four cats from which fibrosarcomas had been excised were studied for a minimum of 3 years, of until death. Two factors, tumor site and mitotic index, were found to be of prognostic significance, but tumor size, duration of growth, and histologic appearance were not. Following removal of fibrosarcomas from the pinna or flank in 6 cats, none died as a result of the tumor but 24 of 35 (70%) cats with fibrosarcoma in the skin of the head, back, or limbs were euthanatized because of local recurrence, usually within 9 months of surgery. The median survival time of cats with a tumor of mitotic index 6 or more in the head, back, or limbs was 16 weeks, compared with 128 weeks when the mitotic index was less than 6. Eleven percent of cats developed pulmonary metastases.
对44只已切除纤维肉瘤的猫进行了至少3年的研究，直至其死亡。发现肿瘤部位和有丝分裂指数这两个因素具有预后意义，但肿瘤大小、生长持续时间和组织学外观则不然。6只猫的耳廓或侧腹的纤维肉瘤切除后，没有一只因肿瘤死亡，但35只头部、背部或四肢皮肤有纤维肉瘤的猫中有24只（70%）因局部复发而被安乐死，通常在手术后9个月内。头部、背部或四肢有丝分裂指数为6或更高的肿瘤的猫的中位生存时间为16周，而有丝分裂指数小于6时为128周。11%的猫发生了肺转移。
