Sarcomas are malignancies that arise from mesenchymal tissues: (think of middle layers of body) bone, cartilage, muscle, fat, blood vessels. Examples are osteosarcoma-bone, chondrosarcoma-cartlilage, liposarcoma-fat, myosarcoma-muscle, and angiosarcoma-blood vessel.
No, the veterinarian would resect the tumor with a wide margin if possible and then provide accepted pain medication such as tramadol or Rimadyl. An opioid pain reliever may be provided if the animal appears to be in significant pain. Pregabalin (Lyrica) is a new drug that has limited approval for use in human medication. Veterinarians are prohibited from using drugs not approved for use in animals unless there is significant medical need and no animal-approved drug is available. As there are other options for treating muscle pain associated with a myosarcoma or myoma, a veterinarian prescribing pregabalin would be doing so illegally.
Tissues (histo-) are similar cells working together toward the same goal. General words include histology (hist = tissue + log = study + y = process) and histogenesis (histo = tissue + genesis = origin). When referring to muscle tissue, the term depends on the working conditions of the muscle or where it is located. Type: skeletal or cardiac or viseral (smooth) muscle. Location: myocardium (muscle [tissue] of the heart) muscularis (muscle layer of the digestive system) myometrium (muscle layer of the uterus)
