Figures
- Figure 1.
Grade 1A changes. Perivascular lymphocytic collections. Hematoxylin and eosin
- Figure 2.
Interstitial lymphocytic infiltrate with obscured myocytes. This region is interpreted as having two adjacent foci, and it therefore graded as Grade 3A. If there were only a single focus in all the biopsy specimens, the picture would be Grade 2. Hematoxylin and eosin. 100X
- Figure 3.
Grade 3B. Global lymphocytic infiltrate between myocytes. Hematoxylin and eosin. 100X
- Figure 4.
Humoral rejection. Positive immunofluorescence for compliment (C-3) along intima of vessel; this specimen was also had vascular positivity for IgM. Immunofluorescence stain. 400X
- Figure 5.
Toxoplasmosis. Cyst of toxoplasmosis within a myocyte. Hematoxylin and eosin. 400X
- Figure 6.
Amyloidosis. Amorphous pink deposits around vessels and within the interstitium. Hematoxylin and eosin. 250X
