title: Juvenile rheumatoid arthritis in a rhesus monkey (Macaca mulatta).
abstract: A juvenile rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) developed a symmetrical erosive polyarthritis involving both large and small diarthrodial joints. Neither an infectious nor a metabolic etiology could be determined. This case shares many clinical and pathological features with the polyarticular form of human juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.
