Interdigital fibroma in fore limb of a male buffalo: A case report

An 8 years old male buffalo was presented to the clinics with a small nodular swelling just below the dew claws on the posterior aspect of the right fore limb. History and clinical examination showed difficulty in walking with gradual enlargement of the mass. Radical surgery was performed under local infiltration and resected mass was diagnosed as fibroma upon histopathological examination. Post-operative follow up was done for 5 days. The animal was completely recovered on 8th postoperative day. Thus, interdigital fibroma can be treated effectively by radical surgery.
