The correct choice of sarcoid treatment method is critical. The best possible method should be used for each individual lesion taking into account the type, anatomical location, duration, and previous treatment history, and owners’ resources. Each factor will influence the decision but no method is universally effective.

  • Identify six different types of equine sarcoid
