FELINE INJECTION SITE SARCOMA AND ITS POSSIBLE THERAPEUTIC MODALITIES

Abstract

Feline injection-site sarcomas (FISS) are malignant tumours, and the treatment of these tumours poses a challenge for veterinary surgeons. The recommended therapeutic strategy is a multimodal approach and treatment options include radical surgery combined with radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Radiation therapy is not always available and other treatment options, such as immunotherapy and photodynamic therapy, should be looked into and will be discussed further.
