Case records of 32 cats with cutaneous mast cell tumors (CMCTs) were reviewed. Using the Patnaik system for grading canine mast cell tumors, the relationships between histopathological grade and patient survival time and tumor recurrence were examined. Tumor histopathological grade had no prognostic significance. One-, two-, and three-year tumor recurrence rates following surgical excision were 16%, 19%, and 13%, respectively. Incomplete excision was not associated with a higher rate of tumor recurrence.
