A 10-year-old spayed female Japanese Shiba Inu had an intraperitoneal mass that was excised surgically. The central area of the mass was composed of osteoblast-like neoplastic cells, osteoid, macrophages, and numerous fibers. The neoplastic cells showed nuclear atypia and many mitotic figures. Therefore, the central area of the mass was diagnosed as an extraskeletal osteosarcoma. The peripheral area of the mass was granuloma tissue with numerous fibers. The neoplastic and granuloma area included two types of fibers, which were identified as rayon and polyester by their morphological and staining characteristics. These fibers were consistent with those of commercial surgical swab, suggesting that the fibers may have been derived from retained surgical swabs at the time of ovariohysterectomy. Therefore, this lesion was considered an extraskeletal osteosarcoma associated with a retained surgical swab.

A 12-year-old female Himalayan cat underwent an ovariohysterectomy to remove an intra-abdominal mass. Histologic examination using immunohistochemical staining revealed that the mass was comprised of epithelial and mesenchymal components. Within the lesion, multinucleated giant cells (MGCs) were observed diffusely. MGCs were positive for vimentin and Iba-1 and negative for cytokeratin AE1/AE3 and CD204. In addition, MGCs were negative for Ki‐67, indicating nonneoplastic cells. Osteoclast-like MGC (OLMGC) phenotype with tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase positivity was also seen. These findings suggested that the uterine tumor was carcinosarcoma with OLMGCs. Uterine tumors in humans, such as leiomyosarcoma and carcinosarcoma, with OLMGC infiltration are well-known pathologic entities; however, they are rare in animals and to our knowledge, have not been previously reported in cats.
