A 6‐year‐old adult male rhesus macaque ( Macaca mulatta ) developed a vasocutaneous fistula following an anatomic inguinal hernia repair years earlier. The vasocutaneous fistula was surgically repaired, the vas deferens was ligated, and the wound was closed in layers with non‐overlapping suture lines with no further adverse sequalae of events.
