Feline injection-site fibrosarcoma. (A) Mean multinucleated giant cell count in grade I, II, and III tumours. Significantly higher multinucleated giant cell count was observed in grade III tumours compared to grade II (p = 0.004) and grade I (p = 0.017). (B) A positive correlation between multinucleated giant cell occurrence and tumour grade (r = 0.49; p = 0.000). (C) Mean multinucleated giant cell count compared to mitotic score. Significantly higher multinucleated giant cell count was observed in mitotic score 3 compared to mitotic score 1 (p = 0.022) and mitotic score 2 (p = 0.02). (D) A positive correlation between multinucleated giant cell count and mitotic score (r = 0.441; p = 0.000)
