A 15-year-old male Quarter Horse stallion was referred with paraphimosis and suspected exuberant granulation tissue (EGT) of the glans penis. Physical examination revealed a painful, voluminous, pink, irregular, cauliflower-shaped lesion on the penis. Based on the history, anatomical location and clinical presentation EGT was suspected. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis with no evidence of neoplasia. To obtain breeding soundness, surgical excision of the EGT and reconstruction of the glans penis was recommended.Following surgical removal of the granulation tissue, the stallion recovered without complications and returned to breeding with satisfactory performance including normal libido and mating behaviour.
