Figure 3 Histopathologic findings from transbronchial biopsies (hematoxylin and eosin stains). A, Compressed lung parenchyma with multiple eosinophilic microabscesses (black circles) (original magnification × 4). B, A higher magnification of one of the encircled regions in A, showing an aggregate of eosinophils with bright red granules; scant fibrin (pink amorphous material) surrounding the eosinophils is shown as well (original magnification × 40). C, Bronchial wall (endobronchial lesions) with diffuse, mixed inflammatory infiltrate (original magnification × 10). D, A higher magnification of C with intravascular aggregates of eosinophils (black arrow) and scattered eosinophils and plasma cells (original magnification × 40).
