A 39-year-old female rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) presented for stertor that had progressed over a 2-year period. A mass involving the soft palate was seen partially obstructing the oropharynx. Histopathological examination revealed a well-circumscribed, partially encapsulated mass composed primarily of myoepithelial cells with scattered duct-like structures, squamous metaplasia and hyaline stroma. The mass was diagnosed as a myoepithelial-rich pleomorphic adenoma. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case in non-human primates.
一只39岁的雌性恒河猴（猕猴属）因持续了两年的鼾症前来就诊。发现一个累及软腭的肿物部分阻塞口咽。组织病理学检查显示一个边界清楚、部分包膜完整的肿物，主要由肌上皮细胞组成，伴有散在的导管样结构、鳞状化生和透明质基质。该肿物被诊断为富含肌上皮的多形性腺瘤。据我们所知，这是首例在非人灵长类动物中报道的病例。
