Pancreatic Endocrine Tumour with Disseminated Pulmonary Thromboembolism in an Owl Monkey (Aotus nancymae)
چکیده انگلیسی

SummaryPulmonary thromboembolism associated with pancreatic endocrine neoplasia is extremely uncommon in man and animals. Post-mortem examination of an adult owl monkey (Aotus nancymae) revealed extensive pulmonary arterial thromboembolism and a well-demarcated mass attached to the pancreas. Microscopically, the mass consisted of areas of interstitial fibrosis with loss of acini and islets and replacement by nests and sheets of polygonal cells with amphophilic cytoplasm, an eccentric round nucleus with stippled chromatin and, in some cells, with a single prominent eccentric nucleolus. Clusters of these cells were noted within vessels and adjacent lymph nodes. The cells did not express S100 or insulin, but were labelled strongly with SP-1/chromogranin. Rare individual cells expressed glucagon and somatostatin. A few cells in pulmonary thrombi/emboli and the adjacent lymph node also expressed SP-1/chromogranin. Based on cell morphology, location and immunohistochemistry the tumour was classified as pancreatic endocrine (islet cell) carcinoma with metastasis to regional lymph nodes and lung.
