| dc.description.abstract | Six cases of bovine papillomatosis were reported to
the University of Nairobi veterinary clinic. Diagnosis
was based on presented clinical signs and histopathology
of affected skin lesions. The histological samples
of the warts confirmed the diagnosis of papillomatosis.
An autogenous formalin killed bovine specific wart vaccine
was prepared from the wart samples and injected
into four calves on day 0, 10 and 30, while two calves
were left as undosed controls. The warts started regressing
three weeks post vaccination and completely disappeared
by the seventh week. This case represents a successfully
management of a case of papillomatosis with a
bovine specific autogenous vaccine. Keywords: bovine
