Fig. 1 Liver biopsy at day 45 of cholestasis. (A) There is expansion of the portal tract with edema; a predominantly lymphocytic, mixed inflammatory infiltrate; absence of interlobular bile ducts; and prominent cholangioles (H&E). (B) Cholangioles, indicated by arrows, appear prominent with marked vacuolization of the epithelial lining cells (H&E). (C) Cytokeratin 19 immunohistochemical staining (AE1) shows absence of interlobular bile ducts and abnormal staining of damaged cholangiolar epithelium (arrows). (D) Higher magnification of cytokeratin 19 immunohistochemical stained cholangiolar epithelium (between arrows) shows marked cytoplasmic vacuolization indicative of persistent cholestasis.
