“…Similar description has been reported in young adult long-tailed macaques (Macaca fascicularis), but unlike our study, fibrosis was present, which may indicate higher severity, chronicity, or both. 29 Usually, the disease is asymptomatic and the lesion is considered an incidental finding, either during clinical/imaging examination, or during an autopsy, 30 which may explain why most of the individuals had no clinical alterations. Despite the lack of fibrosis in our histopathological analyses, the lesions observed in this study are likely chronic due to the age effect observed in the occurrence of this condition.…”

Under other conditions, the treatment indicated for FNH is tumor embolization by arteriography or simply a conservative conduct with periodic clinical follow-up.…”
