Enchondroma in a rhesus monkey.
A 2.5-year-old rhesus monkey was examined because of a bony enlargement of the distal portion of the right tibia. On the basis of radiographic and histologic findings, enchondroma was diagnosed. The tumor enlarged over the next 2 years, but the monkey continued to have normal use of its limb.
