Hello Friends,
Today we will discuss about Eye Cancer in Cattle .
. The most common type of tumor or 'cancer eye' in cattle is squamous cell carcinoma.
. Its a Cancer occuring on the eye & eyelid
. Older cattle are more susceptible to cancer eye, with the disease being uncommon in cows under five years of age. (Mostly found over 5-6 years old cattle).
Now question is that ....
How to diagnose "Cancer eye" in Cattle?
(1) The tumours are found most commonly on the third eyelid.
(2) Small, circular, white elevation on the surface of the eyeball.
(3) wart-like growth on the eyelids, often with discharge
(4) You can see cauliflower-like. Structure that is bloody, ulcerated, friable, and foul smelling.
(2) Age(more than 5 years are more susceptible).
(3) Exposure to sunlight (UV radiation).
(4) Breed
(1) Cryotherapy:-
. Cryotherapy is a very useful therapeutic tool work on small tumors (less than 2 cm diameter)
(2) Radiation:--
Radiation therapy is not practical in the field but may be an option for valuable animals.
(3) Immunotherapy:
-Immunotherapy is still experimental
Clean the area by using Blade.
Step: 2
Desensitized the area by giving 2% Lignocaine ( Local Anaesthesia)
Step: 3
Used suture matterial in a Interlocking pattern for holding tissue during expiration.
Step: 4
Skin incision Removal of Eye tissue with cancerous mass.
Step: 5
After removing cancer mass dead area packed with iodine gauze.
Step: 6
skin suture in Horizontal mattress.
Step: 7
Antibiotics & NSAIDS given repeatedly for a week.
