Abstract:

This is a report of a penile fibrosarcoma in a two-year-old crossbred Holstein bull. The ulcerated tumormass with dimensions of 7 × 9 × 6.5 cm, was enveloped the glans and body of the penis. It had a white-graycolor at cross section appearance. There was no metastatic evidence of regional lymph node enlargement.Histopathologically, elongated spindle-shaped cells arranged densely in the interwoven pattern had a low rateof mitosis with oddly-shaped nuclei and pleomorphism. Immunohistochemically, the neoplastic cells werepositive for vimentin and S100, but negative for α-smooth muscle actin, desmin, C-KIT and GFAP.

Infantile Fibrosarcoma of Tongue: A Rare Tumor

Infantile fibrosarcoma is very rare tumor and seldom occurs in oral cavity. Overall good prognosis is reported in more than 80% cases. We present a 5-month old female patient with swelling of the tongue for four months. This was excised completely. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry revealed it as infantile fibrosarcoma of grade II.

Electrochemotherapy increases local control after incomplete excision of a recurring penile fibrosarcoma in a stallion

An eleven-year-old stallion was referred for adjuvant treatment of an incompletely excised, recurring penile fibrosarcoma. The horse was bright, alert and responsive with a 15 x 12 cm ulcerated lesion on the ventral side of the penis. The lesion was the tumor bed of an incompletely excised fibrosarcoma. After complete staging procedures, the owner elected to treat the horse with electrochemothe...

Lysozyme enhancement of tumor cell immunoprotection in a murine fibrosarcoma.

We examined the ability of human lysozyme (HLZM) to enhance the immunogenicity of a methylcholanthrene-induced murine fibrosarcoma of C57BL/10 mice. Following s.c. injection of 10(4) live tumor cells, 100% of mice developed palpable tumors within 16 +/- 3 (S.D.) days. Prechallenge immunization with 10(6) irradiated tumor cells with or without complete Freund's adjuvant resulted in protection fr...
