Grading of soft tissue sarcomas in dogs

Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) represent 15% of all canine tumors (benign and malignant) of the skin and subcutaneous tissue and are the second most common malignant tumor of the skin and subcutis. The term STS encompasses a histologically heterogenous but clinically similar group of tumor types, including fibrosarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, peripheral nerve sheath tumor (PNST), liposarcoma, and myxosarcoma.
