Mastocytoma are the second most common skin tumor in cats. [14] They are usually single nodules in the skin, most commonly on the head and neck; in about one quarter of cats, the nodules become ulcerated. [14] Multiple nodules occur in about 20% of cases. [14] Melanomas are not common in cats but when they are, they manifest as basal cell ...
Sporotrichosis, also known as rose handler's disease, [2] is a fungal infection that may be localised to skin, lungs, bone and joint, or become systemic. [2] [4] It presents with firm painless nodules that later ulcerate. [3]
A lung nodule or pulmonary nodule is a relatively small focal density in the lung. A solitary pulmonary nodule (SPN) or coin lesion, [1] is a mass in the lung smaller than three centimeters in diameter. A pulmonary micronodule has a diameter of less than three millimetres. [2] There may also be multiple nodules.
The cannonball sign is a radiological term used to describe the presence of multiple, well-circumscribed, round opacities seen on X-ray or CT imaging, typically in the lungs. [1] This finding is most commonly associated with hematogenous metastases, where malignant cells spread to the lungs via the bloodstream, forming discrete nodules that ...
Paragonimiasis, or lung fluke uses cats as a reservoir and subsequently can transmit the infection to humans. Symptoms in cats have not been observed. There are over nine species of lung flukes that can be transmitted to humans from cats. The disease has been found in Asia, Africa, India, North, South and Central America.

The most frequent findings on a computed tomography (CT) of the chest are multiple primary nodules and/or masses, on a background of mosaic attenuation and airway wall thickening. [2] [9] The nodules have an indolent pattern of growth and are found throughout the lungs. The nodules are typically rounded and well-defined.
Two types of mast cell tumors have been identified in cats, a mast cell type similar to dogs and a histiocytic type that appears as subcutaneous nodules and may resolve spontaneously. Young Siamese cats are at an increased risk for the histiocytic type, [ 2 ] although the mast cell type is the most common in all cats and is considered to be ...
