Abstract
An older wild female chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) was found dead with a large calcium oxalate stone in the renal pelvis. Histopathological changes included glomerulosclerosis, interstitial nephritis and fibrosis, focal mineralization, and medial hypertrophy. Urinary albumin-creatinine-ratio showed increased values from 15 months before death. Causes of the kidney disease remain unconfirmed.
