Article Abstract
The aim of this report was to present a case of epitheliotropic cutaneous lymphoma (mycosis fungoides) in a coati. The animal was presented for evaluation of a non-pruritic nodule. Although the diagnosis of cutaneous histiocytoma was made histologically, plaques and erosions appeared in new areas of the skin along with rapid deterioration of body condition that led to euthanasia in less than one month following initial presentation. Epitheliotropic cutaneous lymphoma was confirmed with plaque biopsies. Cross-reactivity of a polyclonal antihuman CD3 antibody to coati T lymphocytes was also observed. Apart from skin lesions, only pleuritis was post-mortem diagnosed most likely because of immunosuppression secondarily to malignant neoplasia.

Introduction: Cutaneous T-cell dyscrasia (CTCD) encompasses a heterogeneous group of T-cell infiltrates, often clonal and epitheliotropic. While the etiology remains unclear, certain medications, including statins, have been linked to cutaneous T-cell lymphocytic infiltrate development.

Article Synopsis
- - Papillomaviruses (PVs) are a type of DNA virus linked to benign warts and potential cancer, with most focus on human types (HPVs) while knowledge of PVs in other species is limited.
- - A new PV, named PtepPV1, was identified in a nasal swab from a wild red colobus monkey in Uganda, with a genome that shares significant similarity to a human HPV strain.
- - PtepPV1 represents the first instance of a nonhuman primate PV found in the nasal cavity and offers insights into the diversity and characteristics of PVs beyond humans, including features associated with cancer risk.
