Abstract
A Jersey heifer with multiple cutaneous wart
like lesions on the muzzle, head, neck, back and
lumbar region was brought for the treatment.
The cutaneous lesions appeared as rough or
with thorny surface and cauliower like masses
of varying size. They were irregular in shape,
attached by a narrow stalk with broad base.
Histopathological examination of the warts
revealed thickened epidermis with nger-like
projections. Epithelium grew into the connective
tissue and formed typical rete-pegs. The case
was diagnosed as bovine papilloma.
