Plain-English summary
A 7-year-old male domestic cat was diagnosed with a fibrosarcoma, which is a type of tumor located on the nose. The cat underwent two surgeries to remove the tumor, and thankfully, there was no recurrence of the cancer over the following 10 months. The surgeries not only successfully removed the tumor but also resulted in a healing process that left the cat looking and functioning well.
