“…Other spontaneous CNS neoplasms in the baboon include choroid plexus lipoma (Fiori et al, 1994) and a medulloblastoma (Berthe et al, 1980). In macaques, spontaneous CNS tumors are less common and include a fibrillary astrocytoma in a cynomolgus macaque (Yanai et al, 1992) and a neurohypophyseal astrocytoma in a rhesus macaque (HogenEsch et al, 1992). Thomas et al (1996) reports a unique polyclonal lymphoid tumor arising in the choroid plexus of a young gorilla that was cured via complete excision.…”

“…Comments: Astrocytomas are primary central nervous system tumors, which account for less than 5.6% of all primary central nervous system tumors in humans 304 . These tumors are rare in non-human primates, with one report in a cynomolgus macaque 302 . In humans, astrocytomas are classified by criteria set forth by the World Health Organization (WHO), and identified on the basis of associated genetic mutations and histologic features 305 .…”

International Harmonization of Nomenclature and Diagnostic Criteria (INHAND): Non-proliferative and Proliferative Lesions of the Non-human Primate (<i>M. fascicularis</i>)

The INHAND (International Harmonization of Nomenclature and Diagnostic Criteria for Lesions Project (www.toxpath.org/inhand.asp) is a joint initiative of the Societies of Toxicologic Pathology from Europe (ESTP), Great Britain (BSTP), Japan (JSTP) and North America (STP) to develop an internationally accepted nomenclature for proliferative and nonproliferative lesions in laboratory animals. The purpose of this publication is to provide a standardized nomenclature for classifying microscopic lesions observed in most tissues and organs from the nonhuman primate used in nonclinical safety studies. Some of the lesions are illustrated by color photomicrographs. The standardized nomenclature presented in this document is also available electronically on the internet (http://www.goreni.org/). Sources of material included histopathology databases from government, academia, and industrial laboratories throughout the world. Content includes spontaneous lesions as well as lesions induced by exposure to test materials. Relevant infectious and parasitic lesions are included as well. A widely accepted and utilized international harmonization of nomenclature for lesions in laboratory animals will provide a common language among regulatory and scientific research organizations in different countries and increase and enrich international exchanges of information among toxicologists and pathologists.

“…To the authors’ knowledge, few cases of intracranial tumours have been reported in non‐human primates. One case of psammomatous meningioma in a black and white ruffed lemur ( Varecia variegata variegata ) (Winkelmann and others 2007) and one case of astrocytoma in a cynomolgus monkey ( Macaca fascicularis ) (Yanai and others 1992) have been described, but unfortunately, the animals did not undergo surgery and were euthanased. Intracranial surgery has not been previously reported in lemurs.…”

A nine-year-old greater bamboo lemur (Prolemur simus) was presented for the resection of a 3×2 cm occipital brain tumour. Intracranial surgery has not been previously reported in lemurs. Pain management, maintenance of an adequate perfusion pressure in the CNS, maintenance of autoregulation, provision of neuroprotection and prevention of the complications induced by the surgical technique (positioning, haemorrhage, seizures, etc) are the challenges associated to this surgery in domestic animals. The management of anaesthesia for such a condition in a wild animal is even more challenging. This report illustrates how difficult the management of anaesthesia is in a wild animal undergoing a procedure that requires intensive care and restraint, while published information on anaesthesia and critical care in this species is limited.
