An 18-year-old Warmblood gelding was presented for investigation of a large, firm mass over the medial and plantar aspect left distal metatarsal fetlock region. The first identified 4 months prior to referral, following traumatic incident, had time gradually increased in size. Clinical examination diagnostic imaging revealed large soft tissue adjacent metatarsophalangeal joint digital flexor te...

Third-generation bisphosphonates are known to inhibit bone resorption and also appear to exhibit direct anti-tumour activity. We previously reported that third-generation bisphosphonates such as zoledronic acid (ZOL) have a direct antitumour effect, and synergistically augment the effects of antitumor agents in osteosarcoma cells. There has been no report on the antitumor effect of ZOL against ...

A fibrosarcoma is a malignant mesenchymal tumor derived from fibrous connective tissue. It usually develops in the deep soft tissues of the extremities, as well as the trunk, head, and neck. In extremely rare cases, a fibrosarcoma may occur in the gastrointestinal tract. Most cases of fibrosarcoma in the gastrointestinal tract have been observed in the pediatric age group while only a few cases...

BACKGROUND Infantile Fibrosarcoma is a rare soft tissue tumor in infants and children mostly located in extremities. An infantile and adult form has similar histopathological patterns but survival prognosis is much better in infantile form. Recurrence of infantile fibrosarcoma is common but the rates of metastasis are less than 10 percent in children younger than five Years and 50 percent in ch...

Fibrosarcoma is a rare malignant mesenchymal neoplasm’s of the fibroblasts which are represents 1% all malignancies in head and neck region. In this article we described case primary fibrosarcoma gingiva right sided alvulas mandible 16 years old male. Who was presented with rapidly growing painful lump. Microscopically tumor mass composed atypical proliferation spindle cells arranged intersecti...

Murine fibrosarcoma cells were examined for sensitivity to killing by natural killer (NK) and natural cytotoxic lymphocytes from mouse spleens. These tumor cell lines were sensitive to killing by effector cells which were nonadherent to plastic or nylon wool, Thy-1 negative, asialo-GM1 negative, and present in the spleens of beige mice, nude mice, and A/J mice, as well as in the spleens of norm...

Fibrosarcoma is a malignant mesenchymal neoplasm of fibroblasts that rarely affects the oral cavity and can cause local recurrences or metastasis. Fibrosarcomas account for 15% of all soft tissue sarcomas, which represent only 1% of all malignant tumors of the head and neck region. The clinical behavior of the fibrosarcoma is characterized by a high local recurrence rate, and low incidence of l...

Macromolecular dextrans carrying substituents terminated by sulfhydryl groups or terminated by aromatic amines effectively inhibit the growth of a fibrosarcoma and of a mammary adenocarcinoma in a syngeneic mouse model. These compounds have no or very low toxicity to animals and are nontoxic to fibrosarcoma cells in vitro. Small-molecular-weight compounds carrying the same substituents as the a...
