Rabdomiossarcoma em gato: relato de caso

Abstract

Among low-frequency neoplasms in veterinary medicine, we find rhabdomyosarcoma, a neoplasm characteristic of the musculature with high infiltrative and metastatic power. Such neoplasia is rare in dogs and cats, being less frequent in cats, whose etiology can be attributed to a type of tumor induced by post-vaccination reaction. The treatment for this type of tumor is surgical intervention with associated chemotherapy, having a reserved prognosis. This present report proposes to demonstrate a therapy with associated chemotherapy in a 21-year-old feline.
