Sulawesi crested macaques (Macaca nigra) (SCMs) are critically endangered and frequently suffer from chronic intestinal disease in captivity. Often, despite routine diagnostic investigations and confirmation of intestinal inflammation, an aetiology cannot be identified, leading to a non-specific categorization as chronic enterocolitis rather than an aetiological diagnosis. This study evaluates the histological features of gastrointestinal tissues from 23 SCMs, comparing animals with a clinical history suggestive of chronic enterocolitis (n = 14) with those without gastrointestinal clinical signs (n = 9).

Rationale: Inflammatory fibroid polyp (IFP), also known as Vanek tumor, is a rare, benign gastrointestinal lesion characterized by its inflammatory and fibroid histological features. IFP is often discovered incidentally during endoscopic examinations. It is exceedingly rare for an IFP to prolapse into the duodenum and results in incomplete obstruction of the pylorus.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Natural products, particularly medicinal plants, have been utilized in traditional medicine for millennia to treat various diseases. The genus Balanophora (Balanophoraceae) consists of 23 accepted species. These species are the most controversial flowering plants, with highly reduced morphologies and are found parasitizing on the roots of their host.

A 79-year-old man with shortness of breath on exertion had right pleural effusion and ascites effusion on CT, and was diagnosed with adenocarcinoma on pleural cytology. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed a gastric cancer with pyloric stenosis, and biopsy from the same site revealed Group 5(tub2). The patient was diagnosed as unresectable advanced gastric cancer with pyloric stenosis and peritoneal and pleural dissemination.
