Summary Skin diseases are an important health problem in horses, and the skin is the most common location for tumours. Equine sarcoids, melanomas and squamous cell carcinomas make up over 95% of cutaneous tumours, but information about the effective treatment of these common forms of skin cancer is limited. In the absence of reliable therapies for advanced cases, cancer screening, reliable diagnostics and early treatment become even more important.
