Resumo
Melanomas are neoplasm not frequent in rattle. They constitute less than 2% of all the bovine turners. This report describes a 11-month-old female Holstein heifer hearing a subcutaneous mass of tissue approximately 18 x 8 cm surrounding the right eye, extending to the top of the neck. This mass appeared when the animal was 4-month-old. A biopsy sample taken to histopathology revealed neoplastic tissue composed of melanin-loaded cells and not disorganized connective tissue fibers. Partial pigment removal, utilizing potassium permanganate technique, revealed large nucleus in thp melanocitic cells. In some of these cells, a nucleolus was evident. Considering that previous reports on fibrous dermic melanocytoma are rarer in the literature, these findings are documented.
