Observações sobre papilomatose em bovinos

Resumo

The A. A., in this paper, relate the observations on a bovine herd affected by papilloma or common warts; it was treated with the specific medicament "Figueirina", made in the "Laboratório de Biologia Veterinária", of Matias Barbosa, Minas Gerais, Brazil. In twenty-six affected animals, twenty showed complete cure after the treatment, three of them improved, and the other three didn't show any satisfactory results. Among the cured animals, twelve were young and eight were adult. The uncured animals were all adult. In most cases, the warts disappeared rapidly with two applications. In those animals that had resisted four applications, the warts didn't disappear, even with greater dosis. "Figueirina" showed more efficience in the treatment of young animals.
