Abstract

A bullock was presented with three months history of proliferative growth on the tongue. Oral examination revealed large irregular mass with cracks on dorso-lateral aspect of tongue. The growth was resected and examined histologically. Histologically, neoplastic cells of variable size with oval nuclei proceeding to various directions invading the surrounding muscle, metastasis of tumorous cells within the blood vessel and scant mitotic figures were observed.
