The biologic behavior of equine melanoma can range from localized, small, and non-invasive to metastatic, proliferative, and catastrophically invasive. Therefore, it is important during the prepurchase examination to note and accurately record the presence of any tumor suspected as melanoma, capture its current status photographically, and clearly communicate to the potential buyer that its future implications, although unpredictable, can be serious.
