Medical, Surgical Radiation Oncology: Practical Approach to Diagnosis and Management of Transitional Cell Carcinomas in Dogs Cats

摘要

Urinary bladder cancer accounts for ~2% of all cancers in dogs. Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC), also known as urothelial carcinoma, is the most common cancer of the urinary bladder in dogs (75-90%) (other primary bladder cancers are squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma [ACA], undifferentiated carcinoma, fibrosarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma). TCC is much less common in cats but is still the most common urinary bladder cancer (others are SCC, ACA, leiomyosarcoma).
