For periods of 3, 6, and 12 months, 104 feral rhesus monkeys (Macaca mulatta) were on test. At the time of necropsy, 26 had caseous granulomatous lesions in the submucosa of the colon consistent with oesophagostomiasis. Five also had histologically identified granulomatous lesions without caseation of various colonic and more distant arterioles. The lesions were seen in the submucosa and subserosa of the colon, the kidney, the adventitial tissue of the prostate, the pancreas, and the heart. Presumptive evidence of the migration of the parasite was found in the adventitial tissue of the esophagus. Fragments of the larvae in arterioles and the caseous submucosa of the colon were consistent morphologically with the species Oesophagostomum. Acellular masses of what was interpreted as cuticle of a molting parasite were found in the lung. A mature female nematode was found encysted in the lung. The identity of that parasite and the cuticle has not been established.
在3个月、6个月和12个月的时间段内，对104只野生恒河猴（猕猴）进行了测试。尸检时，26只猴子的结肠黏膜下层有干酪样肉芽肿性病变，符合结节线虫病。另外5只猴子的各种结肠及更远端小动脉有组织学鉴定的无干酪样坏死的肉芽肿性病变。这些病变见于结肠黏膜下层和浆膜下层、肾脏、前列腺外膜组织、胰腺和心脏。在食管外膜组织中发现了寄生虫移行的推测证据。小动脉和结肠干酪样黏膜下层中的幼虫片段在形态上与结节线虫属物种一致。在肺中发现了被解释为蜕化寄生虫角质层的无细胞团块。在肺中发现一只成熟的雌性线虫包囊。该寄生虫和角质层的身份尚未确定。
