None of mine have had mediastinal, but others on the list have. Mediastinal
usually responds well to chemo at least for a while. It works just as well on
positive cats at first. The difference is that positive cats tend to have
shorter remissions than negatives. But I would definitely do it. Some people on
the list have had it give their cats 3-6 months of good time.

One of my FeLV+ cats most likely has mediastinal LSA. I had positive
kittens diagnosed with this and not live very long but that was a few years
ago
despite some conservative treatment (mainly aspiration/comfort measures). I
am
currently treating a NEGATIVE cat for intestinal cancer and he has done very
well. I have also read that the mediastinal LSA often responds positively to
chemo....but most of those studies are on NEGATIVE cats.
I'm sure that (sadly) at least someone else here has had a cat with this
condition. The cat was otherwise health and w/o symptoms up until last
Thursday. It initially appeared as URI like w/coughing/congestion sounds.
But after
no improvement with meds over the weekend, he was checked again, nothing in
lungs but "mystery" spot on X-rays. We have consult with cancer vet and
ultra sound tomorrow.
Any input welcome.
