Abstract

Squamous cell carcinoma of the perineal region of goats is described for the first time in Botswana. The tumour was irregularly shaped, cauliflower-like and ulcerated. The exposed surface had an unpleasant smell and was covered by a black keratinous exudate. Histopathologically the lesions were compatible with previous descriptions.
