Figure 3 Post-mortem histopathology.
A: Small bowel. The high power view of small bowel shows focal full thickness mucosal ulceration with inflamed granulation tissue and preservation of the muscularis mucosae (arrow); B: Colon. Endoscopic biopsy of the left colon approximately one month after commencing cyclophosphamide showed surface fibrin exudate (short arrow), severe mucosal ulceration and granulation tissue with a few residual glands (arrowheads). There were no viral inclusions or granulomas. Preserved muscularis mucosae is seen (long arrows). Hematoxylin-eosin staining, magnification × 100.
