Tumors involving bone in the domestic cat: a review of fifty-eight cases.
This account of 58 spontaneous tumors involving bone in domestic cats compares and contrasts the pathological findings with previous surveys. Of the tumors described, only one was diagnosed as benign. Squamous cell carcinoma was the most common tumor of the series; osteosarcoma was the most common primary tumor. Only two tumors metastasized to the lungs (one hemangiosarcoma and one osteosarcoma), and only three metastasized to a regional node (two squamous cell carcinomas and one lymphosarcoma).
