По нескольким причинам (мы были у двоих московских онкологов, одного немецкого и здесь на месте, все сходятся в одном и том же) - кошки, не в пример собакам, практически на химию не реагируют в основной своей массе и очень плохо ее переносят. Т.к. опухоль обладает лишь "некоторыми св-вами злокачетсвенности", химия не показана. Наблюдать. Кому интересно, вот наше заключение полностью:
Macroscopic findings:
Submitted was tissue with skin up to 4.5 cm in diameter.
Three pieces were embedded.
Microscopic findings:
The following staining was performed according to standard operation
procedures: H&E.
Tumor growth of melanocytes was seen. The cells were highly
to moderately pigmented and were infiltrating the epidermis,
focally closely realted to vessels. The amount of mitosis was low.
The cutting edge seemed to lay in the unchanged tissue.
Diagnosis:
melanocytoma
Critical report:
Besides the histological differentiation the location of the tumor
is an important prognostic factor in melanocytomas.
The clinicial behaviour so far and the location and age of the animal
suggests a benigne tumor. Nevertheless some unusual features
were seen (association to vessels, epitheliotropism).
The prognosis is guarded and the further clinical behaviour is
essential.
