Abstract
A captive marmoset developed metastatic endometrioid carcinoma (EnC), a rare uterine tumor in non-human primates (NHPs). The neoplasm showed marked microscopical malignant and tubulopapillary aspects, immunopositivity for pan-cytokeratin, CK7, estrogen receptor, and a high mitotic index (Ki-67). These features may contribute to the diagnosis and therapeutics of EnC in NHPs.
