Article Synopsis
- Acute gastrointestinal dilation is a condition where the stomach and intestines become overstretched due to excessive gas, which is rarely seen in laboratory monkeys.
- Two rhesus monkeys at the Korea National Primate Research Center experienced this condition; one died suddenly after anesthesia, while the other died after treatment, with necropsies revealing severe lung and intestinal congestion.
- The presence of non-gas-forming bacteria in their gastrointestinal contents suggests that the condition was likely caused by a combination of factors, including diet, anesthesia, and excessive water intake, rather than an infection by gas-producing bacteria.
Ovarian cyst is common incidental finding in humans and many animals and includes follicular cysts, cystic rete ovarii and mesonephric duct cysts. Ovarian cyst is often associated with reproductive disorders in humans and animals. We found accidentally bilateral cystic masses in ovaries in an African green monkey.
