Five Mehsani buffaloes were presented with clinical signs indicative of horn cancer. The animals were treated with horn amputation by flap method under sedation, cornual nerve block and local infiltration. The histopathological examination of growth revealed fibrous dysplasia in three buffaloes and melanocytoma in two animals. All buffaloes had an uneventful recovery and no recurrence was observed up to two years.
