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.
