TLDR The lemur's health and behavior improved after surgery to remove a testicular tumor.
A 14.5-year-old male black-and-white ruffed lemur presented with an enlarged left testicle and poor coat quality, including alopecia. After a unilateral orchiectomy, which revealed an interstitial cell tumor, the lemur's coat quality improved significantly, and its behavior shifted from aggressive to submissive, eventually returning to normal. Follow-up examinations showed no metastasis or neoplasia in the remaining testicle, and hormone levels were normal. At 19 months post-surgery, the lemur's coat was nearly normal, and it maintained its social status without abnormal aggression.
