Abstract
Bovine ocular squamous cell carcinoma (BOSCC) also called cancer eye, represents the most economically important neoplasm in large animals. Hereditary factors, environmental factors, lack of eyelid pigmentation, age and dietary habits have all been reported to play a role in the etiopathogenesis of bovine ocular squamous cell carcinoma. In group I, six animals with small, localized eye cancer where vision was not affected were included and subjected to intralesional injection of Bacillus Calmette- Guerin (BCG) vaccine at 0, 14, 35, and 56 days interval. In group II (six animals), surgical excision and Mitomycin C 0.04% topically on alternate weeks for two months as adjunctive therapy. All the animals recovered completely with no recurrence for a follow up period of one year.
