Abstract
Epidemiologic evidence shows a strong association between the administ ration of inactivated feline vaccines (feline leukemia virus and rabie s) and subsequent soft tissue sarcoma development at vaccine sites. Al though more research is needed to understand the complete pathogenesis of vaccine-induced tumors in cats, good evidence exists that inflamma tion plays a role.
