A female common marmoset (Callithrix jachhus) suffered from weight loss exhibited tachypnea after anesthesia. We diagnosed marmoset duodenal dilation syndrome (MDDS) and aspiration pneumonia after post-anesthesia vomiting secondary to MDDS. If MDDS is suspected due to clinical symptoms such as weight loss, bloating, or vomiting, careful anesthesia and treatment of vomiting will be important to prevent aspiration pneumonia.
