STS/MCT

Question 1

Karbe
Scar Revisions in Cutaneous MCT
VetSurg 2021

Answer 1

Residual disease 27%

Incomplete after revision 8%

Local reoccurrence 4% at 555d
Dz progression 15% at 207d
*neither associated with margin status or presence of MCT in resected scar

Grade III
~Lymph node metastasis
~locoregional recurrence
~disease progression

Question 2

Milovancev

VetSurg 2018

Answer 2

29. 6 mm MCT
30. 2 mm STS

Question 3

DeWitt
Novel imaging Normal vs. STS & MCT
VetSurg 2016

Answer 3

Correct neoplasia vs. normal 92%

53% of patients had transient facial erythema

fluorescence‐based imaging system

Question 4

Lapsley
Locoregional aspiration vs. sentinel lymph node mapping for MCT
VetSurg 2021

Answer 4

Sentinel lymph nodes were consistently identified with ICTL ~differed from LRLN 25%

Altered recommendations
50%

Question 5

Villedieu
Pulmonary nodules in STS
JAVMA 2021

Answer 5

Pulmonary nodules in 12%

Grade 1: 6%
Grade 2: 6%
Grade 3: 38%

Increased odds of pulmonary nodules
~Grade 3 vs. 1 or 2
~Duration of STS > 3 m

*low-yield diagnostic procedure

Question 6

Stain used on FNA of suspected MCT

Answer 6

Romanowsky-type stain
