- Abstract
A wart lesion was observed near the anus of a female Arabian horse housed in a private equine facility in Bucak District of Burdur Province. During the histopathological examination of the mass, equine sarcoid was revealed. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) revealed the presence of bovine papillomavirus (BPV) type 10 and type 12 viral genomes in the tissue. It was observed that the combined treatment approach of PAPILEND™ ® cream + Zylexis™ + AlquermoldTM premix powder was beneficial in treating the sarcoid associated with BPV type 10 and type 12 on the anal region. No recurrence of the lesion was observed during the 6-month follow-up period. In conclusion, it is recommended to diagnose the presence of BPV in horses with warts and to investigate the efficacy of this combined treatment approach in larger populations.
