Abstract

Two local adult goats were presented with lameness due to a soft tissue, easily bleeding growth over the medial digit of the right forelimb. Radiography did not reveal any bony involvement. The growths were meticulously resected and diagnosed histopathologically as melanomas. Recurrence was noticed two months later in one of these cases.
