title: ["Cancer eye" in German spotted cattle. Occurrence, treatment methods and results].
abstract: Incidence, therapy and outcome of bovine ocular squamous cell carcinoma are reported on the basis of 128 cases seen in Fleckvieh cows over a period of 15 years. Of the cases observed, 112 were treated surgically. Of 70 patients checked between 6 and 31 months post op. 56 (80%) remained tumor free. Prerequisites of successful treatment of periocular neoplasms include early recognition, preferably in early stages, and immediate removal.
