Abstract

On clinical examination, animal had multiple papilloma, varying in size from 5 to 100 mm in diameter and was diagnosed as generalized cutaneous papillomatosis and managed with autogenous vaccine and immunomodulator (Levamisole @ 3.5mg/kg, PO). Sloughing of warts from affected areas were observed after three weeks of treatment and significant clinical recovery was observed after six weeks of treatment.
