Gastrointestinal disease is a frequently encountered problem among captive common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) colonies. Management can be challenging due to the number of etiologies responsible for gastrointestinal disease in this species, limitations on diagnostic capabilities, and lack of effective treatments. Understanding commonly described GI diseases in the captive marmoset can provide insight on the impact these diseases have on research studies and aid in the development of appropriate management strategies. A review of commonly encountered GI disease processes as well as routinely implicated causes of GI disease in the common marmoset are provided. Current strategies in clinical management of GI disease in the common marmoset, including approaches to colony health, diagnostic testing, and commonly employed treatments are discussed.
胃肠道疾病是圈养普通狨猴(Callithrix jacchus)群体中常见的问题。由于该物种胃肠道疾病的病因众多,诊断能力有限,且缺乏有效治疗方法,因此管理颇具挑战性。了解圈养狨猴中常见的胃肠道疾病可以深入了解这些疾病对研究的影响,并有助于制定适当的管理策略。本文综述了常见的胃肠道疾病过程以及普通狨猴胃肠道疾病的常见病因。讨论了普通狨猴胃肠道疾病的临床管理策略,包括群体健康管理、诊断检测和常用治疗方法。
